Abstract

The rapid convergence of advanced analytics, artificial intelligence, and financial technologies has fundamentally restructured the architecture of modern financial services. This transformation is not limited to efficiency gains or automation but extends deeply into how financial institutions conceptualize value creation, customer relationships, decision-making authority, and ethical responsibility. Drawing strictly on the provided interdisciplinary body of literature, this research article develops an extensive theoretical and analytical examination of hyper-personalization in FinTech ecosystems, emphasizing data-driven architectures, machine learning methodologies, and socio-technical consequences. The study situates analytics and AI as core enablers of personalization across financial services, including marketing, wealth management, risk assessment, and consumer engagement. By synthesizing insights from analytics management, FinTech evolution, big data mining, personalization theory, and adjacent domains such as healthcare digitization and participatory platforms, the article identifies a significant literature gap: the absence of an integrated conceptual framework that reconciles technological capability with human, cultural, and ethical dimensions. Using a qualitative, theory-driven methodological approach, the paper offers a detailed descriptive analysis of how personalization systems are designed, operationalized, and experienced. The findings highlight that while hyper-personalization enhances relevance, efficiency, and engagement, it simultaneously intensifies boundary risks related to privacy, emotional manipulation, cultural stigma, and algorithmic opacity. The discussion advances nuanced interpretations, addresses counter-arguments, and outlines future research directions that emphasize responsible personalization, cross-sector learning, and participatory governance. The article concludes that the future of FinTech personalization depends not merely on more data or more powerful algorithms, but on a balanced socio-technical alignment that preserves human agency, trust, and inclusivity within increasingly automated financial environments.
