The open banking landscape

To reiterate Claire Harrop’s post from Money 20/20 US earlier this week: open banking is going global

A new report from Capgemini and BNP Paribas highlights the countries that are leading the charge and allowing new market entrants to compete with existing banking service providers.

What’s striking is how - even with regulatory initiatives such as PSD2 seeking to harmonise payment services across the EU - there’s a stark divide in member states’ open banking readiness and potential.
