Recorded live from the Equals stand at Money20/20 Amsterdam, Grant Evans sits down with Albert Wong, SVP at OSL, to explore why embedded finance remains one of the industry's biggest opportunities — and one of its toughest execution challenges.Albert shares why many businesses have successfully embedded payments but still struggle to scale, where the biggest friction points sit across technology, operations, and partnerships, and why the industry may have underestimated what it takes to move from integration to long-term success.They also discuss the importance of servicing, support, and trust in embedded finance, what great partnerships actually look like in practice, and Albert steps up for The Payments Shed's legendary Shelf of Shame to call out one thing the industry continues to get wrong.***The Payments Shed Podcast is headline sponsored by Damisa.Damisa is a regulated cross-border payments and treasury infrastructure provider.
