Abstract

The purpose of this study is to analyze and design an investment model in financial systems using a FinTech-oriented approach, employing the meta-synthesis method to integrate existing research findings in this field. This method enables researchers to thoroughly examine previous articles and studies to identify and synthesize the dimensions and components of strategic models for investment development. In this research, after identifying and selecting credible articles from scientific databases and journals, the data were analyzed through document analysis and the meta-synthesis process. The findings indicate that strategic investment models in FinTech should focus on utilizing emerging technologies such as artificial intelligence, blockchain, and digital payments in order to effectively manage financial and technological risks inherent in this industry. Furthermore, one of the significant results of this study is the emphasis on training and empowering FinTech managers in financial risk analysis and the adoption of optimal investment strategies. The research also highlights that international cooperation in scientific and technological domains can lead to knowledge exchange and the strengthening of technical infrastructures within the FinTech industry. Ultimately, this study can serve as a theoretical foundation for the design and implementation of strategic models in emerging industries based on information technology—particularly in the FinTech sector—and assist decision-makers and investors in this industry in leveraging optimal investment opportunities.
