    Any Company Can Offer Financial Services

    Angela

    Traditional financial institutions are being disrupted by a new "as-a-service" infrastructure stack that allows non-financial companies like Uber and Shopify to integrate banking products directly into their core models. By abstracting complex legacy systems and compliance hurdles, platforms such as Synapse and Plaid enable thousands of new ventures to launch niche financial solutions while reducing costs and improving customer trust. This shift is projected to transform the industry, with financial services revenue anticipated to surge from 10% to 80% of attendee sectors within five years as legacy barriers dissolve.
