here's an article from coinbase which i think explains the concept pretty well:

A Beginner’s Guide to Decentralized Finance (DeFi) (https://blog.coinbase.com/a-beginners-guide-to-decentralized-finance-defi-574c68ff43c4)

some examples of existing DeFi platforms:
https://makerdao.com/ (stablecoins and decentralized banking)
https://compound.finance/ (borrowing and lending)
https://kyber.network/ (DEX)
https://www.synthetix.io/ (synthetic assets)

I just bump to this site recently maybe you can get an idea of what DEFI (Decentralized Finance). As written on their front page "there are a number of key issues the DeFi ecosystem is still not able to solve" I wonder what it is my knowledge on DEFI is not that much. Anyways I am not promoting this site. https://www.finnexus.io

Most DEFIs right now is built on top of the Ethereum network. The impact is not yet that great, it depends on how the market adopt or appreciates it. There are some DEFI index websites such as https://defiprime.com/#defi_projects if you need to find other projects.
