Open Banking.
Account Information Services (AISP) & Payment Initiation Services (PISP) Authorisation.
11 million people in the UK currently use Open Banking services, making 14 million payment transactions annually*. In its 2025/2030 Strategy document (when discussing the potential for Open Banking), the FCA has stated “to realise that potential, we will increase the pace of change to deliver innovation and competition”. The regulator’s intention to champion the continued progress of Open Banking services in the UK is clear.
Open Banking is transforming how consumers and businesses are managing their finances in the UK. Whether you are offering AISP, PISP (or both) services, Cosegic is here to ensure you meet the necessary regulatory requirements and your on-going obligations.
