Open Banking Expo 2024 – EVENT ROUND-UP

OBL was delighted to take part in the largest UK Open Banking Expo so far, and enjoy lively discussions on topics from commercial VRPs to consumer protection; from payments to the smart data economy.

Thanks to all the participants who made it such an interesting, insightful and exciting event.

OCTOBER HIGHLIGHTS

OBL Trustee Marion King commented: “October saw the Government put data at the centre of its Budget, the Data Use and Access Bill introduced to the House of Lords, and an OBL meeting with the Secretary of State for Science, Innovation and Technology, who indicated that the Data Bill is on track to pass before summer, next year.

These things combined give a clear signal of the direction of travel that the ecosystem needs, so it can innovate and invest with certainty. It also demonstrates a strong commitment to furthering the UK’s leadership in data innovation and regulatory frameworks, built on its approach to open banking.”
