These partnerships aim to leverage Visa's extensive network to provide seamless financial services across different platforms.

This collaboration is expected to enhance the credit union's offerings, particularly in providing modern payment solutions to its members.
• Mitgo Group Acquires Embedded - In March 2024, Mitgo Group, a German marketing technology provider, announced the acquisition of the UAE-based embedded finance platform, Embedded. This acquisition aims to enhance Mitgo's capabilities in providing embedded finance solutions to its affiliate customers, allowing the company to enter the fintech market effectively.

This acquisition aims to diversify Moniepoint's portfolio and expand its regional presence, enhancing its capabilities in providing embedded finance solutions across Africa.

Regulatory Changes

• Increased Federal Guidance and Oversight: Regulators have issued landmark guidance, such as the Novel Activities Supervision Program and Interagency Guidance on Third-Party Relationships, leading to a more cautious approach in the embedded finance and Banking-as-a-Service (BaaS) sectors. Banks are now required to manage fintechs with the same rigor as bank vendors, and the costs of governance are expected to increase for tech firms.
• Consumer Duty Regulations: New regulations, such as consumer duty, require companies to ensure that their products and services are clearly understood by consumers. This involves transparent communication about pricing, product features, and potential risks. While this may slow down the innovation process, it ultimately leads to better consumer protection and trust.
• Collaboration with Regulators: Companies are working closely with regulators to navigate the complexities of compliance. Understanding regulatory requirements and finding innovative ways to meet them without stifling growth is essential. Leveraging advanced technologies for identity verification and risk assessment can help bridge the gap between innovation and regulation.
• Cross-Border Regulatory Challenges: For companies expanding globally, operating across different regulatory environments poses challenges. Knowing which regulatory requirements apply in each region is crucial. Collaboration with tech providers and distributors is essential to ensure compliance without stifling innovation.
