Finally, this paper will formulate the conclusions and recommendations for improving regulation of the financial technology industry.Abstrak: Industri keuangan syariah semakin diramaikan dengan munculnya teknologi finansial (financial technology) baik yang berbentuk peer to peer lending maupun crowdfunding.

Ketiga, paper ini merumuskan tata kelola perusahaan dan kompetensi sumber daya manusia DPS untuk mendorong kepatuhan syariah Islamic financial technology. Akhirnya, paper ini merumuskan kesimpulan dan rekomendasi untuk perbaikan regulasi industri teknologi finansial.
