‘Open banking’ might sound like two words that shouldn’t be used together. But in reality, it’s the ability to share your financial data ?? with another financial service provider. With open banking, you decide who you want to share your data with to help manage your money, gain simpler access to credit or even make payments in video games. And small businesses benefit more from their data and can access tailored experiences. But adoption requires partnership and collaboration to build confidence that data is secure. Mastercard is taking the lead to build that trust. We hosted partners in New York to chat about the future of open banking. We discussed the potential for AI to strengthen and secure data exchanges to improve the benefits people want—securing loans and owning a home. Making financial management easier, more personalized and convenient takes convenings like this to realize open banking’s full potential. Jess Turner, George Maddaloni, Greg Ulrich
