Investor’s Guide to Disruptive Innovation in Modern Finance
Disruptive innovation continues to reshape modern finance, creating new markets and displacing established players. The "Innovator’s Dilemma," coined by Clayton Christensen, highlights why market leaders often miss these transformative opportunities. Startups and outsiders typically drive these shifts, as large firms prioritize incremental improvements over revolutionary ideas.
For investors, early identification of disruptive sectors offers outsized returns. Historical examples—from automobiles to electricity—demonstrate the power of such shifts. The current landscape presents similar opportunities, particularly in blockchain and digital assets.
