Last night at our end-of-year reception, OBL CEO Henk Van Hulle revealed the latest open banking milestone - 8+ million open banking users. He also thanked the open banking ecosystem and stakeholders whose hard work made this milestone possible. City Minister @BimAfolami MP said: “Without open banking, fintech businesses wouldn't be as effective. So this stuff really matters. And the reason why it matters is not just the technological underpinning, although that's key. It matters because that is the way in which we are better than our competitors in this country, because we are more forward-thinking from a regulatory, legislative, and industry perspective. And everybody in this room should be very proud of the part that they have played in that.” #OpenBanking #SmartData #OpenFinance #Fintech #Innovation #Payments #Fintech #Parliament #Technology @scullyp @JohnPenroseNews @mattwarman @JonAshworth @AlexChalkChelt
