About this episode

Open banking allows financial institutions to share data and have a more globalised, connected banking system. It enables customers to share personal financial information securely, which can broaden the products and services available to them.

For example, personal finance apps help individuals to manage their finances, track spending habits, save and access other financial services, all from one place.

Lenders can better evaluate the borrowing power of applicants if they can access their credit history from other FS providers too.

And have you ever sent a payment to someone without needing to manually input your bank details?

All of this is possible with open banking.

So in today’s podcast we are going to take a look at the countries with an established open banking framework, those in the process of creating the regulation for it, and those who are slipping behind, and really understand the current state of open banking around the world today.
