The Global Embedded Finance Market size is expected to reach $384.8 billion by 2029, rising at a market growth of 30.0% CAGR during the forecast period.
Embedded banking is growing at a high rate as the financial institutions are providing Banking-as-a-service (BaaS) offerings for fulfilling the demand of embedded finance. Hence, it is anticipated to capture approximately 1/5thshare of the market by 2029. When a company uses embedded banking, it may access the same banking features on a single platform that streamlines and simplifies the banking experience. Some of the factors impacting the market are growing smartphone and internet penetration, technological advancements supporting market growth, and a potential risk of embedded lending is taking on excessive loans.
The spread of smartphones & internet connectivity has been a major driver of the market's development. The demand for financial services delivered via mobile devices will increase as more people access these technologies. In recent years, the expanding acceptance of mobile wallets and the Unified Payments Interface (UPI) are clear indications of this trend. Technically, developing specialized services became simpler with the shift from mono-core architectures to microservices and containers. The same banks will have an easier time accepting the idea of offering their services as embedded finance products to other businesses if they eventually move all their IT systems to specialized services and APIs. As a result, businesses seeking to incorporate embedded finance products into their ecosystem are starting to view payment services as a collection of modules put together by additional businesses.
However, although these interactive financial tools have many advantages, there are also some drawbacks. Consumers may feel compelled to take greater risks with smaller loans as credit becomes more widely available. These fees might add up over time, particularly if the consumer owns more than one. They can then discover they have more debt than anticipated and stop making payments.
