Commerce Tomorrow - How Embedded Finance is Disrupting the Modern Economy
Summary
Embedded finance is a burgeoning trend in the fintech world, accelerated by open banking and encouraged by shifting customer behaviors in response to the COVID-19 pandemic.It simplifies financial processes by combining a non-financial service provider, such as a retailer or a ride-sharing service, and a financial service, such as payment processing, lending, or insurance.
Prior to the development of embedded finance, there was usually a disconnect between the consumer and the company with which they did business.With embedded finance, the need for a third-party bank or lender is eliminated.
