Introduction At the European Banking Authority (EBA) Working Group on APIs under PSD2, a number of market participants raised concerns that there could be a potential mismatch, particularly in the case of a revoked authorisation, between the information contained in the eIDAS PSD2 certificate and the information contained on the EBA and national r...

According to PSD2, the financial institutions that act as ASPSPs should have in place at least one interface for regulated TPPs (including other ASPSPs that act as TPPs) for identification and secure communication. Identifying themselves is mandatory for all TPPs that wish to get access to ASPSP’s sandbox, live API, and/or non-dedicated interface ...

One of the key features of the Revised Payment Services Directive (PSD2) and UK Open Banking is the requirement that all (almost) parties engaged in delivering the account information services (AIS) to the end user customer are authorised.

Usually when a new regulation comes in, its goal is to make things more secure, more private, or more inclusive, but often, at the expense of the service provider or convenient ways of working. For once, we may see a regulation that comes in and everyone wins. The second payment services directive, PSD2, has a new requirement deadline coming in Se...

Since the first anniversary of Open Banking earlier this year, I – along with much of the fintech industry – have been questioning the progress of the new regulations, what more we can do to improve consumer experience and outcomes, while further evolving the ecosystem. It is apparent to me that, while Open Banking is working, problems with PSD2 a...

A new era seems to have arrived, also in Belgium. Degroof Petercam, one of the "old ladies" in Belgian private and investment banking, has been awarded the lowest possible audit-score by the NBB, the Belgian Central Bank. Investigations have been started around different potential irregularities. A multimillion is far from unlikely to be...

Evidently, there are more and more innovative FinTech startups as well as banks and insurance companies changing the industry landscape by providing new and easy to use applications and solutions. However, there is one problem that is preventing this revolution moving to the next level and that is they all use their own specific interfaces for the...

Konrad Litwin Global General Manager - Testing at Perforce Software
In the compliance and regulation-driven financial services market, we all know that audits are a fact of life. What is perhaps less well-known is that software development is also subject to these audits. It makes sense because after all, software is at the heart of most financial products these days and it can be an area of risk if not managed ...

In my last article I highlighted the importance for any business handling payment security data to keep it adequately protected by adhering to PCI DSS standards. The consequences for those that do not comply with the regulations could be dire; including loss of consumer and supplier trust, but also a fine from regulators if a data breach occurs. O...

The global regtech market is exploding. By 2023 revenues are expected to be worth $12.3 billion, growing at a compound annual growth rate of 25.4% over the next five years[i]. The pace at which it is evolving has even led Deloitte – who we are proud to be collaborating with on some new client engagements – to call regtech “the new fintech”[ii]. Th...
