Over the past few years, there have been significant changes in the banking industry, with the emergence of new technologies, innovative business models, and regulatory changes. One of the most critical developments in this context has been the transition from open banking to embedded finance.

Open banking explained

Open banking refers to the practice of allowing third-party developers to access bank data and build new applications and services around it. This model emerged as a response to the increasing demand for more innovative and personalized financial services. By opening up their data, banks can enable a new generation of fintech startups to develop innovative solutions that benefit consumers and businesses alike.

The benefits of open banking

The benefits of open banking are many. It can mean access to a broader range of financial services, better rates and fees, and more personalized consumer experiences. For businesses, this can mean improved cash flow management, better risk assessment, and easier access to financing.

 However, open banking is just the beginning of a much more significant transformation in the banking industry. We now witness embedded finance’s rise with the emergence of new technologies such as application programming interfaces (APIs), cloud computing, and artificial intelligence (AI).

Embedded finance explained

Embedded finance integrates financial services into non-financial products and services, creating a seamless customer experience. Embedded finance is not new, as [we have] seen it in the form of credit cards, mortgages, and insurance policies embedded in other products and services. However, what is new is the scale and speed at which embedded finance is evolving.

Today, many companies embed financial services into their products and services. For example, ride-hailing apps can offer loans to drivers to purchase vehicles, e-commerce platforms can offer instant credit at checkout, and accounting software can provide access to financing solutions. By embedding financial services into their products and services, companies can create new revenue streams, deepen customer relationships, and provide a more comprehensive offering.

The shift towards embedded finance

The shift towards embedded finance is driven by several factors, including consumers’ changing needs and expectations, the rise of digital platforms, and the increasing demand for more seamless and convenient experiences. In addition, the regulatory landscape is also evolving to support this transition, with regulators recognizing the potential benefits of embedded finance for consumers and businesses.
