A report by fintech firm Neo indicates that 75% of PSPs are exploring fintech solutions as alternatives to traditional banks.
The majority are now relying on fewer banking partners.
Payment Service Providers (PSPs) face significant challenges in their relationships with traditional banks. A recent
report by fintech firm Neo showed that 95% of PSPs have had their banking
accounts closed or restricted, often with little to no explanation. Amid limited banking
options, many PSPs are now turning to fintech solutions.
Banking for PSPs
The report presented findings from a survey
involving 100 C-suite executives at European PSPs. A concerning 71% of these
professionals noted that their accounts were closed without transparency from
their banking partners.
Relying on a small number of banking partners is a
risky strategy for many PSPs. Approximately 69% of respondents indicated they
depend on three or fewer banks, which heightens their vulnerability. Additionally, only 2% of PSPs reported
successfully opening a traditional bank account in less than six months.
The
average wait time extends to nearly a year, leaving many PSPs frustrated and
seeking alternative solutions. As a result, the research highlighted that over one-third (39%) of PSPs have formed
partnerships with one to three Electronic Money Institutions or other
PSPs. Nearly half (48%) reportedly maintain relationships with four to five EMIs.
Besides that, the report identified several problems PSPs
encounter when dealing with traditional banks. 44% of respondents are affected by lengthy onboarding processes, while 29% cited incompatibility with crypto
exchanges. Additionally, 25% reported the risk of account closures as a
significant concern, alongside challenges resulting from outdated banking
technologies.
Challenges in Traditional Banking
The difficulties extend to cross-border payments,
where 31% of PSPs highlighted limited banking platform capabilities,
particularly in real-time processing and multi-currency handling. The discrepancies between regional issues are notable;
for example, reconciliation of flows emerged as a top concern in the UK, while
limitations in banking platforms troubled many in Italy and France.
In light of these challenges, PSPs are increasingly
integrating EMI and PSP solutions into their operations. On average, firms have
three EMI/PSPs within their banking ecosystem.
A significant 75% of PSPs are actively exploring
fintech solutions as potential replacements for traditional banks. This trend
is particularly pronounced in regions like the UK, where 86% of PSPs are
looking to fintech partners for improved service delivery.
When selecting a fintech partner, PSPs prioritize
several key factors. The security of funds tops the list at 31%. Speedy
onboarding (26%) and low, transparent fees (26%) also play crucial roles in
decision-making.
