Comparison between Banks and Fintechs
Traditionally, banks have been the primary providers of cross-border payment services. However, in the last two decades, fintechs have emerged as innovative providers of cross-border payment solutions. Fintechs often leverage technology to offer more streamlined, cost-effective, and efficient payment services, compared to traditional banks.
Some key differences between banks and fintechs include:
Banks often have a larger customer base and more established infrastructure, while fintechs may have more agile and flexible systems that can adapt quickly to changes in the market.
Banks may have more stringent requirements for onboarding new clients, while fintechs may offer more accessible and user-friendly onboarding processes.
Banks may have higher fees and slower processing times, while fintechs may offer lower fees and faster processing times.
