Nick Holt, Head of Solutions and Delivery for Marqeta in Europe sat down with us at the most recent edition of FTT Embedded Finance & Super Apps and what was the first ever FTT Payments. He shared some of his thoughts on how embedded finance (often discussed and not always understood) had, in the first wave, been mostly focussed on consumers and supporting them in their day to day business in more effective ways.
However, the real opportunity, in terms of sheer scale, is to help businesses do what they do better. A huge amount of money moves across the world on a daily basis – to pay suppliers, settle invoices, buy goods and services, etc. B2B embedded finance can help manage the cost and complexity of doing all of that by building an understanding of the needs of a business.
Can the sheer time and cost of navigating disparate and disjointed payments systems across the world be simplified? What does the future hold? Will AI have a role? Listen to the full interview below to get a look into the future of payments and B2B embedded finance.
