Here’s why it’s worth 10 minutes of your time: financial institutions on the Invela Network can see the risk scores of the TPPs and intermediaries connected to them.

So, if you’re a TPP or intermediary, book a slot at the show (or after, if you’re maxed at the show) and we’ll walk you through your core Invela Risk Indicator score:

➡️ What’s driving it
➡️ How you benchmark against peers in your segment
➡️ What the enhanced score shows once you’re in the Network
➡️ How to actively manage your Open Finance risk

Why knowing and managing your risk matters in Open Finance

UK banks and building societies are connected to a growing Open Finance chain – but only around 230 participants are regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA). The rest of the chain, the third-party providers, processors, sub-processors and technology providers who make up the majority of it, answer to no external standard.

That’s not a minor gap – it’s where most of the chain actually sits. Financial institutions are losing visibility with every new connection made in the ecosystem; intermediaries are inheriting risk – fraud, breaches, unauthorized access, third-party impersonation – they didn’t create and can’t see; third-party providers are carrying that same exposure further with every processor and sub-processor they connect to, all outside the regulator’s remit. All of it landing as reputational damage and financial loss for whoever’s holding the customer relationship.

Invela closes that gap with standardised accreditation, real-time risk intelligence, and liability management, so every participant knows where they stand and what to fix first.
