Regulatory Changes

The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has introduced a draft regulatory sandbox framework, allowing fintech companies to test innovative financial products in a controlled environment. This framework is designed to support the growth of new financial services while ensuring consumer protection. Additionally, the Insurance Commission has issued guidelines for a regulatory sandbox that enables licensed insurance providers to experiment with technological innovations, further promoting the integration of fintech solutions in the insurance sector.

Moreover, the Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas (BSP) continues to advance its strategy for open finance, encouraging collaboration between traditional banks and fintechs to expand access to financial services. These initiatives, along with the significant regulatory developments in the embedded finance sector, collectively reflect a commitment to creating a more robust and inclusive financial ecosystem in the Philippines.
