How Open Finance is Changing Financial Services
Overview
Open finance can transform how customers interact with their finances and how companies compete for their business. It allows organisations across banking, financial services, retail and insurance to deliver more personalised customer experiences by enabling consent-driven data sharing between institutions. Moving beyond open banking, open finance connects a broader range of financial data, giving customers greater visibility and control over their payments, loans, savings and investments.
Connected and permissioned financial data is no longer viewed as a future ambition but a competitive necessity for financial services. According to a recent FT Longitude report, 76% of consumers are prepared to switch providers for greater transparency, smarter digital features and more personalised insights. Organisations that are already embracing open finance are seeing measurable gains from increased revenue and improved KPIs to deeper customer engagement. However, significant value remains untapped. Fragmented data, unreliable APIs and challenges in securing meaningful customer consent are limiting progress; concerns around security and trust slowing wider adoption.
This Financial Times webinar, hosted in partnership with Mastercard, is for financial service leaders to gain clarity on the opportunities and practical realities of open finance. The discussion will examine how organisations can embed open finance into their growth strategies, unlock new value from data and provide more seamless, consumer-centric financial services.
