Open Banking Expo USA will convene key speakers from major financial institutions, including banks, fintechs, and credit unions, as well as policymakers and consumer advocates, to discuss what is being hailed as a new era for Open Banking and Open Finance in the US.
The ongoing uncertainty about the future of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau’s Section 1033 Open Banking rule provides an opportunity for the industry to come together, and with a sold-out exhibition floor and a plethora of fintechs onboard, the future of Open Banking looks assured.
The USA’s Open Banking, Open Finance, and payment ecosystem will take to the stage to discuss key themes, including consumer-centric Open Banking, compliance and competition, new revenue opportunities, and the need to balance regulation, innovation, and customer experience.
