WEBINAR – Open Banking: from tactics to strategy

Please register to watch the recording of the webinar on-demand.

Open banking is set to transform the financial services landscape. For consumers and businesses alike, access to data-driven services promises a higher-quality and more personalized banking experience. Banks and other financial services organizations can meet the initial challenge of open banking transformation and then go beyond that first step by developing new business models that will anticipate changing consumer demands and build the winning companies of tomorrow.

With PSD2, as with many regulatory deadlines, organizations have worked tactically, rather than strategically, and this may have limited growth opportunity, and caused unintended risk challenges. Three months since the planned implementation of PSD2 Open Banking in Europe what have we learned, how has the market responded and what does the future hold? 

Watch this webinar to learn about:

 

  • What the PSD2 / Open Banking landscape looks like today in Europe and globally, common trends and where the differences lie
  • Managing the new risks of TPP and direct API customer access to bank services, exploring banks ‘duty of care’
  • Insights and observations from Virtusa’s experience delivering Open API Banking projects globally
  • What does good look like? Digital transformation, commercialization of services, risk mitigation
