Proprietary batteries a problem?

Where I live in SE asia, they sell electric bikes, and my understanding is that the batteries are proprietary. Some of these bikes are made by companies I never heard of. If the company goes out of business, where do you get a new battery when your battery dies? Are electric bike batteries interchangeable, even if they come from different manufacturers? Is this a serious concern?
