For incumbent banks, the adoption of new technology is business critical in the face of changing customer expectations and increased competition from more agile challengers. For start-ups, limited audiences and market consolidation is making partnership more attractive than going alone. But integration is rarely straightforward, especially when it brings two such different cultures together.<\/p><p>The FinTech industry has matured in recent years, creating new business dynamics that call for a more peaceful approach. Meanwhile, banks are building their own technology to get ahead of competition and fast-track innovation, with 56% of traditional financial institutions having put disruption at the heart of their strategy, according to the UK Department for International Trade\u2019s\u00a0<em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.gov.uk\/government\/publications\/uk-fintech-state-of-the-nation\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\">UK FinTech State of the Nation Report<\/a><\/em>\u00a0which came out in May 2019.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-7a44e72 gg-font-v9 gg-class-for-iphone8 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"7a44e72\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Nonetheless, banks still face limitations that FinTechs can solve. FinTechs can help banks engage younger audiences as well as deal with the challenges presented by re-architecting both the technology stack and their operating models. FinTechs that help banks to navigate regulation and monetise their customer data may enjoy considerable success themselves.<\/p><p>For FinTechs, the security of partnering with an incumbent has become more attractive, given the growing number of start-ups and the shrinking number of opportunities. FinTechs are also finding their ambitions curbed by the dominance of the big high street banks. By joining forces with the banks, FinTechs are better positioned to access the global mass market.<\/p><p>Are we therefore moving into the era of\u00a0<em>co-disruption?<\/em><\/p><p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.gov.uk\/government\/publications\/uk-fintech-state-of-the-nation\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\">82% of incumbent banks<\/a>\u00a0expect to increase FinTech partnerships in the next three to five years.\u00a0Lloyds\u2019\u00a0decision to partner with Thought Machine (TM) , to accelerate and ease the pain of digital transformation, is an interesting indication of where the market is headed. Lloyds will migrate 500,000 customers onto Vault, TM\u2019s cloud-native core banking technology.<\/p><p>ClearBank, the UK\u2019s first new clearing bank in more than 250 years , aims to compete on price, because its cloud-based tech platforms are unencumbered by labyrinthine legacy systems. FinTechs that can offer the golden combination of lower cost and reduced friction to banks will find a willing partner.<\/p><p>However, the practicalities of working together are less clear cut. Given that many FinTechs were conceived as an alternative to traditional banks, how can these potential competitors come together?<\/p><p>Expleo has identified five major hurdles that need to be crossed before FinTechs can reach the finishing line:<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-afd62e3 gg-font-v8 gg-custom-dark-purple-color gg-print-pb-5 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"afd62e3\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\"><a href=\"https:\/\/expleo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/whitepaper-fintechs.pdf\" target=\"_blank\">Challenge #1: How to improve your ecosystem<\/a><\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-6750170 gg-font-v9 gg-class-for-iphone8 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"6750170\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>With competition increasing, it can help to meet the right person on their terms by getting involved in accelerators and innovation labs.
