Understanding security and regulatory compliance when scaling a global marketplace
Blog post from Airwallex
Global marketplace expansion requires managing varied regulations governing cross-border payments, currency exchange, data privacy, tax reporting, fraud prevention, and financial crime. Businesses must protect personal and financial data, comply with regional rules such as GDPR and tax reporting obligations, and use measures including identity verification, transaction monitoring, audits, and risk assessments to meet KYC and AML requirements. Embedded finance providers can simplify these responsibilities by offering local compliance support, automated verification APIs, multi-currency payment infrastructure, foreign-exchange and reporting capabilities, global financial licences, and security technologies such as encryption, tokenization, authentication, and real-time fraud detection. Airwallex presents its embedded finance platform as an example, citing more than 60 global banking licences and adherence to standards including SSL, TLS, SOC 1, SOC 2, and PCI DSS, while noting that businesses should seek independent legal, regulatory, tax, and investment advice for their specific circumstances.
