The race is on for banks to capture a slice of the growing consumer and SME cross-border payments market. But with customers demanding instant, convenient cross-border payments - and agile fintechs offering faster, more affordable tech-driven solutions - banks face steep hurdles. Here’s why: 🔹 Fintechs are gaining market share – They're offering faster, cheaper, tech-driven solutions. 🔹 Legacy systems are complex – Inefficient systems slow things down. 🔹 Too many intermediaries – High costs and slow processes hold banks back. 💡 The solution? Instead of building costly global networks, leading banks are choosing partnerships to tap into existing domestic payment systems, allowing them to deliver fast, transparent cross-border payment services without the complexity. 📖 In her latest article, Julie Arnoux, Commercial Head of Europe and Brazil at Wise Platform, explains why partnerships are the key to staying competitive. 🔗 Read more: https://lnkd.in/e_KbTG7k

$153 billion a year 💸 That’s how much small businesses in the US are losing to hidden fees. That’s money that could go towards new hires, expansion, and innovation. Instead, SMBs are forced to set aside $23 billion in cash reserves just to cope with the unpredictable costs of hidden fees. 📉 Almost a third of these losses ($43 billion) are a result of hidden fees in international transactions. ⏳ But this financial strain isn’t the only issue. 1 in 3 business owners spends hours each month tracking these fees. Don’t let hidden costs hold you back. Read the full report 👇 https://wi.se/awxfzh Learn top hidden fees for US businesses in Inc. Magazine: https://lnkd.in/ey2P4tDc
