Partnership with Fintech

Traditional financial institutions and Fintech have partnered to increase market share and customer reach while promoting financial inclusion and innovation. Fintech startups in India have many options to work with more established companies to grow their customer base and gain access to resources and experience.

The partnership created a unified digital platform that allowed companies to manage their international supply chains from any device easily.

Furthermore, traditional financial institutions are now able to provide their clients with innovative solutions in collaboration with Fintechs and legacy banks. By collaborating with fintech, businesses can also have access to long-term revenue streams and expansion opportunities.

Types of Fintech Partnerships

Staff members of the Federal Reserve met with community bankers and other industry participants across the nation in early 2021 to learn more about their approaches to risk management and their associations with Fintech companies. Fintech partnerships are divided primarily into three categories

(1) Operational technology partnerships

(2) Customer-oriented partnerships, and

(3)Front-end Fintech partnerships

Partnership for Operational Technology

A bank aims to increase efficiency, optimize workflows, improve oversight, and/or strengthen regulatory compliance through an operational technology partnership (also known as reg-tech or regulatory technology).

The objective of this collaboration is to enhance the bank's internal processes and systems, including loan underwriting and fraud detection. A collaboration that employs artificial intelligence (AI) to automate the underwriting or credit judgment processes is one example of this.

In recent years, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau's (CFPB) primary area of responsibility has been to reduce the problems; bank business lines like compliance and audit should be included in the due diligence and risk assessment process.

Customer-focused Partnership

Through customer-oriented collaborations, a bank can improve a feature of its customer-facing platform without having to deal with customers directly through Fintech.

Money transfers between individuals and account opening tools are two instances of these collaborations. Historically, community banks have been limited by their physical location.

Customer-oriented partnerships have the potential to assist community banks in meeting the needs of current clients and attracting new ones by adding their digital presence.

We offer to reduce any risks related to the Bank Secrecy Act (BSA), a bank investigating a Fintech collaboration that enables the opening of deposit accounts or loan originations, for instance, should adhere to its customer identification program, customer due diligence program, and beneficial ownership program. Additionally, a bank may be judged to have engaged in unfair or deceptive acts or practices (UDAP) if it neglected to make the necessary disclosures on the recently improved customer-facing platform.

Front-End Fintech Partnership

It is also known as banking-as-a-service or BaaS, and front-end-facing partnerships are the least prevalent but fastest-growing subset of collaborations. Through the use of the bank's infrastructure, a Fintech company can engage directly with a customer by offering services or banking products.

Fintech clients frequently aren't aware that a bank is participating in the service or transaction, and the bank might be viewed as a silent partner under these agreements.

These collaborations frequently seek to expand deposits, diversify the bank's lending portfolio, and boost income streams by fusing a fintech's technology capabilities with a bank's infrastructure.
