According to a study by data provider\u00a0CB Insights\u00a0this total funding was raised across 1,707 deals, up from 1,480 in 2017.<\/p>\n<p>\n\n\n<\/p>\n<h2>2018<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n\n\n<\/p>\n<p>During 2018, there was a total of 52 investment rounds with figures above $100 million \u2013 so called mega-rounds \u2013 making $24.88 billion combined. The data reveals that 35% of the total investment came from a $14 billion investment in\u00a0Ant Financial, the payment affiliate of Chinese e-commerce giant Alibaba.\u00a0In the last three months of the year, five companies became fintech \u201cunicorns\u201d, reaching a valuation of over $1 billion, including credit card provider Brex, digital bank Monzo, data aggregator Plaid, as well as DevotedHealth and Toss.<\/p>\n<p>\n\n\n<\/p>\n<h2>2019<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n\n\n<\/p>\n<p>For 2019, this doesn\u2019t seem to be slowing down, with N26 and Confluent having joined the ranks of unicorns.<\/p>\n<p>\n\n\n\n<\/p>\n<p>Fintechs are also appearing in many places beyond the \u201ccore markets\u201d, that being China, US and UK. CB Insights says 39% of all 2018 investments happened outside of these three geographies.<\/p>\n<p>\n\n\n\n<\/p>\n<p>Asia saw the biggest boost in deals, growing 38% year-on-year and a record level of <a href=\"https:\/\/demo.disekolah.web.id\/entrepeneur.html\">funding<\/a> raising $22.65 billion across 516 deals.
