KPMG International’s ‘Pulse of Fintech 2H2025’ study has revealed that the global fintech market saw some $116 billion in total investment in 2025, up from the previous year’s $95.5 billion. This turn follows three years of declining investment.

Overall volume in deals however continued to decline to an eight-year low of 4,719 deals from 5,533 deals in 2024; the increase in total capital deployed stems from larger deal sizes, renewed confidence and a more selective investment environment.

On a regional basis, activity was strongest in the Americas, which attracted $66.5 billion in 2025, up from $55.4 billion the year before. Europe, the Middle East and Africa (EMEA) followed with $29.2 billion, while activity in the Asia-Pacific (APAC) activity slowed, declining to $9.3 billion from $11.7 billion in 2024.
