With most governments working toward launching digital currencies in the near term, the fintech industry is expected to witness explosive growth over the long term. Both Fiserv, Inc. (FISV) in Brookfield, Wisc., and Global Payments Inc. (GPN) in Atlanta, Ga., are leading players in the fintech industry and we think are well-positioned to benefit from the industry tailwinds.
But the shares of both FISV and GPN have declined in price over the past year. While shares of GPN lost 34.9% over the past year, FISV fell 9.64%. And in terms of their past month’s performance, FISV is the clear winner with 3.9% gains compared to GPN’s 4.1% decline.
