It’s fair to say the UK has pioneered the Open Banking standard in Europe but what’s happening around the World? Is it as simple as replicating the European approach? We can see many jurisdictions are adopting their own approaches to Open Banking to suit their own markets.

What are the challenges of Open Banking vs. success and what’s the real impact on real people?

What can be done to remove these roadblocks and how can we move forward and pave the way for greater consumer benefit?
