Challenge: Drive competitive edge in your organisation
Organisations must innovate to attract and maintain customers and remain relevant in a competitive and crowded finance marketplace.
One of the challenges for GFT’s banking customers is the adoption of open banking and open finance products. This is still in its early stages, but it is growing rapidly. Open banking allows third-party FSIs to access customers' financial data from banks and other financial institutions through secure APIs.
Open finance is an extension of open banking that allows third-party providers to access via APIs a wider range of financial data, including data from investment platforms, insurance companies and pension providers. This allows customers to share their financial data with other providers, such as budgeting apps, investment platforms and lenders.
POV: Securing and monetising customer data
Financial Services organisations can monetise their open banking and open finance products by charging for secure and consistent access to their customer data through their product APIs. Access to the data can be provided to other teams within the bank to allow for greater business insight through data analytics. Organisations need to develop products that comply with the standards and regulations like the new Swift standard (ISO 20022).
