Join us at the next Canada Meetup
With the cost of living on the rise, the next Meetup will look at how fintech, big tech, regulators, banks and credit unions can build a strategy to help and protect customers via the principles of Open Banking. Should we be building a strategic Open Banking plan whilst waiting for the rules to be written? If so, what are the challengers for consideration? Or should we forge ahead with a market-led approach to solve the here and now problems presented by consumers and businesses today?
