Panel Discussion – Readiness of Legacy Systems for Open Banking in Asia Pacific

Open Banking is the first step towards an Open Data society, ‘a data-driven world that will connect all ecosystems from finance to tech, allowing consumers to fully own their data streams and derive benefit from them.’ A steppingstone on that journey is Open Finance, the extension of Open Banking that allows the exchange of a much broader range of consumer financial data, creating a more holistic and accurate assessment of an individual’s digital financial footprint.

While Open Banking and the broader Open Finance movement puts competitive pressure on banks it also enables them to compete with new digital-first challengers, satisfy customer demand for friction-free, seamless digital services, and improve their margins. That is enabled in turn by modern, API enabled architecture and what the open finance model then allows financial institutions to do.

However, core banking legacy systems and their closed architectures are often incompatible with the demands of the digital era and obstruct banks from achieving the full potential of Open Banking and the broader Open Finance movement. Digital transformation is a key prerequisite if banks want to successfully open up new business opportunities and take advantage of the latest technologies to stay relevant in the ever-changing digital world.
