In 2023, fintech investment in the EMEA region dropped to $24.5 billion, down from $49.6 billion in 2022 – a seven year low.  Macroeconomic and global political conditions are creating challenges for growth, with upcoming general elections around the world adding to the uncertainties in financial ecosystems. Despite these challenges, the outlook for European digital banking remains positive.  The region continues to lead in innovation within the financial sector. This Finextra report, a Special Edition for Money20/20 Europe, features interviews with key players in the European financial services and fintech industries. It includes insights from Vodeno, EY, J.P. Morgan, Swift, Tink, and TrueLayer, and explores the following topics that will be addressed in Amsterdam: Hyper-personalisation: Moving towards super apps  Embedded payments driving the Banking-as-a-Service revolution  Variable recurring payments: The next step in European open banking  Is Europe ready for MiCA?

This trend advanced after regulators across the world endorsed open banking initiatives, data requirements were standardised and in turn, financial players gradually opened up to technology. With the transparency that open banking provides, banks were encouraged to offer digital services, fair pricing, and increased security. Further, they are forced to utilise application programming interfaces (APIs) for seamless information exchange between partners. This trend has since evolved: with open finance, APIs can facilitate the interchange of data, products and services in an attempt to improve customer experience, offer greater choice, and control over their finances. In 2020, the financial services industry - particularly banks - implemented emerging technologies to accelerate innovation across the infrastructure of core functions in real-time, and underlying trends that were previously being considered were utilised in weeks, rather than months or years. The coronavirus has led to relationships with consumers being reimagined and relationships with ecosystem partners being redefined; this also resulted in products and services being reconsidered. Technology providers are no longer just technology vendors: startups, scaleups and even unicorns are now viable collaborators for financial institutions. In this post-lockdown era, banks are tapping into this partnership model to enhance their digital transformation to keep pace with customer requirements and avoid being disrupted by newer, more technology-savvy, entrants. When banks work with technology companies, APIs can be built with a number of microservices that can communicate and connect with these third parties, building upon open finance solutions on cloud-based platforms. This allows financial institutions to scale on demand, pay for only what is consumed, and expand serverless architectures. Financial institutions are no longer considering the cloud – the cloud is necessary for how finance works today. An emerging yet burgeoning trend that will continue to evolve and grow in 2023 – banking as a service (BaaS) - offers a new route to market for banks and empowers them to attract new, niche customers by leveraging the cloud. BaaS also allows non-financial companies to push out financial products where and when they are needed, direct to their customers with minimal investment and with the benefit of cloud-based, pay-as-you-go pricing. This Finextra impact study, produced in association with i-exceed, explores how financial institutions and technology providers can collaborate to deploy mobile and web-based banking solutions at a faster rate. </p> <p class="card-baseline"> <time class="card-timestamp card-icon calendar" datetime="2022-10-20 00:00:00Z">20 October 2022</time> <span class="card-icon download">1002 downloads</span> </p> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> <div class="row"> <div class="col-12 text-end"> <div class="button-container"> <a href="/research/startups" id="ctl00_ctl00_body_bodyLevel_LatestResearch_aAll" class="button button-icon-right button-primary button-fullWidth-mobile button-center"> <span id="ctl00_ctl00_body_bodyLevel_LatestResearch_sAnchorText" class="button-text">All /startups research</span> <span class="button-icon" style="-webkit-mask-image: url('/app_themes/earlgrey/images/icons/arrows/arrowRight.svg'); mask-image: url('/app_themes/earlgrey/images/icons/arrows/arrowRight.svg');"></span> </a> </div> </div> </div> </div> </section>  <section class="section--homepage-finextratv channel"> <div class="container"> <div class="row"> <div class="col-12"> <div class="section--homepage-finextratv-heading"> <div id="ctl00_ctl00_body_bodyLevel_Videos_dChannel" class="channel-section-title">/startups</div> <h2 class="h2">FinextraTV</h2> </div> </div> </div> <div class="row card-row"> <div class="col-12 col-md-5 main-column">  <div class="card card--article card-feature card-lighter"> <div class="row"> <div class="col-12 card-img-container"> <a href="/videoarticle/3162/why-treasury-is-last-to-innovate" arial-label="Watch video: Why Treasury is Last to Innovate" > <img src="/finextra-images/top_pics/xl/pac-osheapeach.jpg" loading="lazy" class="card-img" alt="Why Treasury is Last to Innovate" /> </a> </div> <div class="col-12 card-body-container"> <div class="card-body"> <h3 class="card-title h4"> <a id="ctl00_ctl00_body_bodyLevel_Videos_hTitle" aria-label="Watch video: Why Treasury is Last to Innovate" href="/videoarticle/3162/why-treasury-is-last-to-innovate">Why Treasury is Last to Innovate</a> </h3> <p class="card-text">Join FinextraTV at Money2020 2024 as Pac O’Shea, Co-Founder & CEO, Round, updates the industry on the core challenges for founders and CFOs today.
