The Financial Data Access (FiDA) regulation is a cornerstone of the EU’s Digital Finance Strategy, serving as the legislative foundation for implementing Open Finance across Europe. FiDA will affect the entire finance industry across Europe. Prepare for FiDA and Open Finance now!
The EU Parliament and Council are currently reviewing the rules and once the final version is announced there will be a 24-month implementation period before they become mandatory across EU member states.
To achieve Open Finance, the regulation identifies data holders and data users. Data holders must share all customer data with third parties designated by the customer. Data users combine customer data from various sources to deliver new or better services to the customer. FiDA is designed to give consumers control over all financial data.
Rethinking data and platform strategy: Explore and address the impact of the new FiDA regulation.
Data holders should rethink data and platform strategy, data users should rethink business opportunities
The impact for data holders is substantial. Once implemented and enforceable the regulation requires you to promptly and accurately process customer consent and share customer data through a standard API. Although there is still a lot unknown, it is perfectly clear that such functionality will have a great impact on data management and the operational platform.
The opportunities for data users are potentially immense! What if you now can combine all elements of the financial life of your customer? What if you can help and support your client without asking your client to share all data, but only a consent to retrieve it? FiDA enhances customer convenience by providing a higher-quality service.
On top of all this, data holders can also be data users!
