Fintech has led to increased accessibility, affordability, and convenience in financial services. From digital banking to investing and lending, fintech has transformed the way individuals conduct financial transactions, eliminating the need to physically visit traditional financial institutions. Additionally, payment solutions such as mobile wallets and peer-to-peer payment apps have gained popularity due to their secure and cost-effective nature. An exciting development in fintech is the integration of financial services into non-financial products and services, known as embedded finance. For instance, e-commerce sites can offer financing options at checkout, simplifying the process of acquiring credit. As a result, embedded finance has expanded access to financial services beyond traditional financial institutions. Fintech companies continuously disrupt traditional financial institutions by introducing innovative business models and technologies. This has caused a fundamental shift in the industry and is expected to further transform finance as technology advances. Consequently, there will be an increase in the number of new products and services, as well as new opportunities to integrate financial services into various sectors. Through the reduction of barriers to financial transactions and the introduction of innovative solutions, fintech has presented a challenge to traditional financial institutions, prompting them to adapt and incorporate new technologies. It is expected that there will be further advancements as fintech continues to shape the future of finance.

This panel discussion promises to be an engaging and informative event that attendees will not want to miss. The fintech industry is constantly evolving and it can be difficult to keep up with the latest trends. As we move into 2023, there are several key areas that are expected to drive significant change and innovation in the world of banking and finance.
These technologies include 1.) the continued growth of open banking and the use of APIs to facilitate data sharing and collaboration, 2.) the increasing popularity of digital payments and mobile banking, 3.) the adoption of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning, and 4.) the emergence of blockchain and distributed ledger technology (DLT), and the importance of cybersecurity in protecting against financial threats. In this article, we will explore each of these trends in more detail and discuss their potential impact on the banking and credit union industry. Open Banking and APIs: Open banking refers to the practice of banks making their data and infrastructure available to third parties through APIs (application programming interfaces). This allows fintechs and other organizations to build financial products and services on top of the banks' existing platforms. It is important for banks to familiarize themselves with open banking and APIs due to their potential impact on the financial industry.
There are several benefits to being informed about digital payments and mobile banking for banks.
Listed below are a few reasons why it would be helpful for banks and credit unions to know more about artificial intelligence and machine learning:
Blockchain and distributed ledger technology (DLT) have the potential to revolutionize the financial industry, and it is important for banks to be aware of their capabilities and potential applications.
In today's digital age, cybersecurity is a critical concern for all businesses, including banks. With the increasing prevalence of cyber threats, it is essential for banks to prioritize cybersecurity measures in order to protect their customers' financial information and assets.
In conclusion, the fintech industry is constantly evolving and it is important for businesses and individuals to stay informed about the latest trends. In 2023, we can expect to see significant growth and development in the areas of open banking, APIs, digital payments, mobile banking, AI, machine learning, blockchain, DLT, and cybersecurity. To stay ahead of the competition, it's important for businesses to keep up with the latest trends and adapt to new technologies as they emerge. Attending the 2023 U.S. Fintech Symposium is one way to stay up-to-date on these technologies and their potential impact on the financial sector. The U.S. Fintech Symposium provides a valuable opportunity to network with industry professionals, learn about the latest trends and developments and gain a better understanding of how these technologies will shape the future of finance. Fintech services are changing the way we all do banking, loans, credit, etc. At the center of this is a LOT of data. Fintech companies are obligated to be good data stewards of consumer data via the applications, software, infrastructure that they develop and maintain as part of their overall business services. Cybersecurity resiliency will be a key factor in ensuring that consumer growth and trust is maintained for fintech organizations. Meet the topic of Zero trust. A healthy topic of discussion within the cybersecurity company and increasingly a hot topic in fintech startups and more mature organizations recognizing that the ecosystem of their product hinges on solid security architecture. Zero trust is a concept that states that trust should be implicit across these product environments but validated and verified and not simply once but all the time. This presentation will focus on presenting a case study within the card industry on how zero trust measures have factored into the cybersecurity resiliency of the company's software development strategy and data security commitment to its customers. Most Important Points? 1. Fintech services are revolutionizing the way banking, loans, and credit are conducted, and a significant amount of data is at the center of this transformation. Fintech companies have a responsibility to be good data stewards of consumer data through their software, applications, and infrastructure. 2.

The following is a guest blog post from our Marketing Partner - Fintech Futures! Welcome to the March edition of the Banking Technology Magazine! (Click here to read the full digital edition.) Cover story: FACE OFF – Confrontation can be a good thing. We are entering the spring season with the continuing shake-up across the industry – the buy now, pay later (BNPL) sector is finally put under the regulatory spotlight; the fintech darling Banking-as-a-Service (BaaS) hits rocky ground; redundancies are rife; funding and valuations ruthlessly cut; and lots of fintechs putting up “for sale” signs. Following the leadership shake-up at FIS and mass layoff announcements, the US banking and payments tech heavyweight has unveiled a $17.6 billion write-down on its Merchant Solutions business and plans to spin it off over the next 12 months. The business mainly consists of payments software arm Worldpay that FIS acquired four years ago foraround $43 billion. In turn, Worldpay was created through the coming together of paytech titans Vantiv in the US and Worldpay in the UK, in early 2018. The Worldpay brand will make a comeback, with former Vantiv/Worldpay CEO Charles Drucker taking the reins once more. Click here to read the full digital edition. FIS will then be left core banking processing systems business, which makes up around 46% of its revenue, and its capital markets division, which makes up about a quarter of revenues. Meanwhile, FIS rival and a long-standing player in the fintech space, Finastra, is looking to shed its core banking software business. Similar to FIS, it grew over the years via M&A, hoovering up several banking offerings, including the Phoenix core and Malauzai mobile banking solutions in the US; and Essence and its much older siblings, Equation and Midas (plus the now sunsetted Bankmaster), offered to banks worldwide. Finastra is reportedly hoping to sell its “universal banking” business, which it’s currently carving out, for as much as $7 billion. It will then be left with treasury and capital markets, payments, and lending businesses. Whatever comes next, one thing for sure: there won’t be a dull moment in 2023 for the world of fintech, and we will continue to bring you the juiciest stories and the hottest coverage.

New Session Announcement: Why On-Demand Pay is the Fintech Industry’s Answer to the Future of Work2/28/2023 This session will discuss the evolution of the payroll, why on-demand pay is the future and how it fits into the fintech ecosystem, and why the financial services industry should care. Payroll is the point a consumer’s financial journey begins – without a steady inflow of funds, consumers simply cannot pay for items, let alone utilize the millions of fintech services available today. And, for most people, they rely on a paycheck as their main source of income. However, on any given day, EY estimates that $1 trillion of employees’ wages are locked up in payroll systems across OECD countries. Meanwhile, millions of people live paycheck to paycheck, with little to no financial buffer in between the 2-4 week pay cycle. In fact, according to Ceridian’s latest research, one in two North American workers tapped into their savings account to pay for necessities in 2022. As a result, they succumb to credit card debt or even payday loans to make ends meet. With financial stress at all-time highs, imagine what freeing up that $1T in capital would do for workers’ financial well-being. Over the past several years, on-demand pay has revolutionized the payroll experience by eliminating the need to wait for payday. Leading employers have successfully implemented on-demand pay solutions like Ceridian’s Dayforce Wallet to empower workers with instant access to their paychecks. Most Important Points? As more employers recognize the importance of on-demand pay, it will open the doors for millions of people to access their paychecks on any day of the month. Plus, it will act as a as a financial bridge for those lacking access to credit. This presentation will highlight how this will impact a consumer’s financial journey, and why it matters to the fintech industry. Explore how the fintech ecosystem can take advantage of a massive opportunity to provide every employee (a potential customer) with more sophisticated financial tools like robust budgeting options, lending products, credit building, investments, and more. What’s next after on-demand pay? What types of innovations will bridge the gap between the traditional two-to-four-week pay cycle and employees’ financial needs? Enter streaming pay, a technology pioneered by Ceridian that will automatically “stream” workers’ earned wages into their wallets in real-time. As workers face macroeconomic challenges like inflation, many are barely making ends meet, with little to no financial buffer to pay for unexpected expenses like a car repair or a medical emergency. Explore how employers like Danone North America and OTG Management have implemented on-demand pay to help alleviate this stress for their people, leading to increased retention and productivity at work. |
