What happens to embedded finance when the rate environment changes the economics behind the partnership?

The rate cycle has changed the conditions under which banks and fintechs evaluate embedded finance.

For banks, the question is no longer simply where embedded finance can create distribution. It is whether the economics, credit risk and partnership structure still make sense in the new environment.

This white paper examines that shift and what it means for banking and fintech teams making embedded finance decisions.

Inside the Paper:

How the changing rate environment affects embedded finance economics.

What changing rates mean for banks lending through fintech channels.

How credit risk affects bank–fintech partnerships.

How banks can assess the value of fintech distribution.

What banks and fintechs need to reconsider as market conditions change.
