This week marks a major milestone in the world of open banking! 🚀 The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) in the United States has finalised a Personal Financial Data Rights rule that will unlock consumers’ financial data, enabling people in the U.S. to switch providers more easily, and for free. This means increased competition, better rates, and improved services for consumers across banking, credit cards and payments. However, for financial institutions, this news brings significant change and complexity. Although the regulation is now in place, there's still no clarity on which standard body should be followed. Financial Data Exchange (FDX), a U.S. nonprofit, have submitted its application to be the standard to follow in the United States. FDX is dedicated to unifying the financial industry around a common standard and has been at the forefront of the market-driven approach to open banking in the United States. Everyone, including FDX, is waiting to see when CFPB make the announcement. Just before the ruling was announced, our GM for North America, Eyal Sivan, spoke to FDX Managing Director Don Cardinal to find out more: https://ow.ly/Lyxo50TSzOu #CFPB #Fintech #OpenBanking #DataPrivacy #Section1033 #API #FinancialServices #Regulation #DataRights #FinancialInstitutions

The Mr. Open Banking podcast is going live! Eyal Sivan, host of Mr. Open Banking and GM for North America at Ozone API, will be recording not one, but three Mr. Open Banking episodes live at this year’s Money20/20 event in the USA. Yes, you read that correct, you can watch the action as it happens! Below are the topics he'll be discussing and the experts joining him in the recording booth! #OpenBanking #Money2020 #Fintech #Podcast
Huge news to share! Mr. Open Banking will be recording *three* live podcast sessions at Money20/20. The world's largest fintech event bar none, happening in Vegas this month from Oct 27th to 30th, is going to be massive for open banking this year. With the Section 1033 U.S. regulation widely expected to be officially announced in-line with the big show, it will be on everybody's lips. So to be recording the Mr. Open Banking podcast live as part of their MoneyPot exhibit is an unbelievable opportunity to capture the zeitgeist of the moment. My esteemed guests and I will be in the booth for three sessions, as follows: Session 1: Mr. Open Banking speaks to the Aggregators A conversation with the open banking leads from three major US aggregators, John Pitts from Plaid, Jane Barratt from MX and Anil Mahalaha from Akoya, to discuss the upcoming Section 1033 regulation and its implications for the US financial ecosystem. With regulated open banking about to hit the US, how American consumers share their financial data will change forever, and the aggregators will be right in the middle of it. Monday, Oct 28th from 1:30-2:30pm at The MoneyPot Stage 1 Session 2: Mr. Open Banking and Friends A friendly sit down with Canadian fintech specialist Michelle Beyo from FINAVATOR INC, British expert on digital money David Birch from Consult Hyperion and Managing Director of the Financial Data Exchange, Don Cardinal, three of my closest colleagues from around the world. Since they work in different regions and different spheres, each brings a distinct view based on their unique experience as an open banking thought leader. Tuesday, Oct 29th from 2:10-3:10pm at The MoneyPot Stage 2 Session 3: Mr. Open Banking speaks to the US Cores A conversation with leaders from the three major US Core Banking Providers, Hashim Toussaint from FIS, Sunil Sachdev from Fiserv and Chad Killingsworth from Jack Henry, to discuss how the CFPB’s upcoming Section 1033 regulation will affect their respective strategies. As strategic providers to thousands of US financial institutions, these three firms will be key to the successful adoption of open banking in America. Tuesday, Oct 29th from 3:50-4:30pm at The MoneyPot Stage 1 My endless gratitude goes out to Rachel Morrissey and the Money20/20 team for such an incredible chance to cover what will no doubt be a watershed moment in the history of open banking. Hard to believe it's actually happening. Somebody pinch me.
