Product & Innovations

KPMG's Embedded Finance Hub

In May 2024, KPMG launched Singapore's first Embedded Finance Hub, a collaborative platform designed to accelerate the adoption of embedded finance solutions across various industries. This hub fosters partnerships between corporates and financial institutions to create innovative financial products and services, enhancing the overall customer experience.

Atome's Enhanced Payment Solutions

Atome, a leading player in the embedded finance sector, has expanded its offerings in Singapore by improving its payment solutions. These solutions allow consumers to split purchases into interest-free installments, meeting the growing demand for flexible payment options in e-commerce. These product launches highlight Singapore's dynamic embedded finance landscape, which is driven by innovation and the integration of financial services into everyday transactions.

Strategic Partnerships

Funding Societies and SGeBIZ Collaboration

In early 2024, Funding Societies, a leading digital finance platform for Southeast Asian SMEs, partnered with Singapore E-Business (SGeBIZ). This collaboration aims to integrate B2B embedded finance solutions into SGeBIZ's procurement platform, enabling businesses to use features like Buy Now and Pay Later (BNPL) in their purchasing processes. These partnerships underscore the growing trend of integrating financial services into various platforms in Singapore, enhancing accessibility and convenience for consumers and businesses.

Regulatory Changes

Monetary Authority of Singapore's (MAS) Approach

MAS continues to adopt a forward-thinking approach to fintech regulation, encouraging innovation while ensuring financial stability. Initiatives like the FinTech Regulatory Sandbox allow startups to test embedded finance solutions in a controlled environment.

Collaboration with KPMG on the Embedded Finance Hub

In May 2024, MAS collaborated with KPMG to launch Singapore's first Embedded Finance Hub. This initiative aims to accelerate embedded finance adoption by developing joint capabilities between corporates and financial institutions, creating new growth opportunities.

Monitoring of Buy Now, Pay Later (BNPL) Sector

MAS is closely monitoring the BNPL sector due to rising concerns over consumer debt risks. The Singapore Fintech Association (SFA) established a BNPL Working Group in March 2022 to create a framework and code of conduct for BNPL providers, which took effect in November 2022.These regulatory developments demonstrate Singapore's commitment to nurturing the growth of embedded finance while balancing innovation with necessary safeguards and oversight.
