Areas covered? All continents, checked.
It is no surprise that when it comes to evolution and innovation in the financial industry, progress is registered differently as you go from time zone to time zone. That is why The Paypers set out to cover as extensively as possible various geographies to find out exactly how Open Banking is implemented and what results it bears in certain key markets. Of course, you will also find out how regulatory aspects can influence the aforementioned progress and, in the end, you will have a complete picture on why things are as they are in the present time.
Open Banking means being open towards collaboration
Banks had to accept that in order to survive and thrive in the new world being introduced by Open Banking, they will have to set pride aside and reach out to fintechs. Startups and fresh market developers come with an agile way of thinking which couldn’t be encouraged by the rigour usually found in traditional banking.
By teaming up, banks and fintechs make their lives easier, but more importantly, they can provide much improved customer experience and value added to the products which they offer. A key aspect that will make a bank stand out from the rest — in the context of Open Banking — is represented by placing high importance on their community, on quality communication with customers, and increased focus on the commercial aspect.
Open but also secure
In order to make sure that the Open Banking ecosystem is strong, you have to look past innovation and customer experience and make sure that everything happens in a tightly secured environment. The protection provided by Europe’s PSD2, for example, allows customers and financial product providers to collaborate in a safe environment, which does nothing more than to encourage people to flock towards what Open Banking represents.
