Embedded finance companies, including those pivoting into the trend, will reach a market cap of $7.2 trillion globally by 2030. Additionally, the embedded finance market will reach just under $230 billion in terms of new revenue volume by 2025 in the US, versus $22.5 billion in 2020, an increase of 922%

Future of embedded finance

A combination of industry, consumer, and macroeconomic factors will power the rise of embedded finance in Europe, the UK, and the US over the next decade. Most of all, embedded finance will become mainstream thanks to increasing consumer trust in Big Tech firms to manage their finances, as well as these firms' growing footprint in finance.
