Framework for financial data access

The European Union has introduced a new framework aimed at ensuring secure and open access to customer data across a broader spectrum of financial services. This framework prioritises consumers' interests, competition, security, and trust.

With the rise of digital technologies, new providers have emerged in the payment services market, particularly offering 'open banking' solutions. While broader 'Open Finance' options in areas beyond payments are also evolving, their progress has been slower due to the absence of clear regulations. Importantly, these solutions may not always be efficient or secure, as they involve data users accessing information through interfaces established by data holders for their customers, much like the delivery of 'open banking' services before the revised Payment Services Directive.

Considering these market changes, the proposed framework aims to ensure that the EU's financial sector is well-equipped and responsive to digital transformation, addressing both the risks and opportunities it presents, especially for consumers.
