39 - How To Plan Geo-Expansion in FinTech


Listen Later

In this episode of Compliance That Makes Sense, I am talking about geo-expansions in FinTech, how to prepare for your expansion, what to have in mind, what the options are and how I recommend going about it. When I talk about geo-expansion, what I mean is that you have an existing entity, and you are simply adding a new country into your scope of services. I will share some questions I have received and give my answers and suggestions to help you if you are considering geo-expansions.

Today's episode:

[00:33] Hey guys, I'm back!

[01:58] Do I launch all the countries at once or sequence them one after another?

[04:51] I share some practical aspects to consider when you launch in a different country.

[07:59] Listen, as I describe reasons, you need a different fee structure or terms and conditions for people from different countries.

[08:19] I recommend that it's better to start with a soft launch.

[10:15] The last question I want to cover is how to communicate with authorities, both your home regulator where you are based and with the local authorities if needed.

[12:52] It's always a good idea to share with regulators your financial projections.

[15:02] Financial service usage is driven by a desire to pay or be paid with fewer fees and more speed, and better transparency.

[16:31] Bye for now!
