Podcasts about Open banking

In This Episode Live from the main stage at Arizent's Digital Banking 2025, this high-energy episode of Breaking Banks brings the regulatory heat. Host Jason Henrichs is joined by Alex Johnson (Fintech Takes) and Dara Tarkowski (Actuate Law) for unfiltered, rapid-fire takes on the most urgent—and divisive—issues shaping digital finance regulation today. In a fintech twist on the classic ‘90s game FMK, the trio tackles which regulatory bodies to "love, leave, or reform"—from the CFPB and OCC to the NCUA and beyond. No topic is off-limits as they debate the shifting landscape around Section 1033, Open Banking implementation, UDAP enforcement, and the growing tensions between innovation and compliance. Plus: what do the STABLE Act, the GENIUS Act, and Stablecoin policy have in common? They all point to a regulatory future that's as complex as it is critical to get right. This episode is not for the faint of heart, but essential listening for anyone working at the intersection of fintech, policy, and consumer protection.

Send us a textThis show started out as an exploration of Jack Henry's 7th annual Strategy Benchmark Survey where CEOs of credit unions and banks reveal what really matters to them.  It's a data trich survey, there's a link in the show notes and I say that because the talk with Lee Wetherington – Senior Director of Corporate Strategy at Jack Henry quickly veered into what's happening in Washington DC and how changes - especially at CFPB - may impact credit unions.Along the way we discuss how this is an age where data rules, open banking is coming at you ready or not, you probably don't know your members nearly as well as you think, and small business relationships probably aren't what you think but they may well be critical to the future of many credit unions.Does that spicy stew have your taste buds dancing with excitement? It should because this is a show that plunges into the unexpected but it's stuff you need to know about banking tomorrow.Listen up.Like what you are hearing?

Gäste:Prof. Dr. Silke Finken | International School of ManagementPatrick Henrich | CommerzbankJoris Hensen | Deutsche BankKai Wirthwein | First Financial Angesichts des hohen Aufwands, der für die Umsetzung von FIDA (Financial Data Access) zu erwarten ist, fragen sich viele – vor allem kleinere und mittlere – Kreditinstitute, worauf sie sich vorbereiten müssen. Die Standardisierung von Daten sowie die Bewertung und entsprechende Priorisierung von Use Cases sind sicherlich Aufgaben, mit denen man sich schon jetzt beschäftigen sollte. Die aktuelle Stammtischrunde mit Professor Dr. Silke Finken, Patrick Henrich, Joris Hensen, Dr. Christoph Huck, Ute Kolck und Kai Wirthwein gibt weitere wichtige Denkanstöße.

In the final episode recorded live from Money 20/20 in Las Vegas, Nevada, Eyal sits down with leaders from the the three major U.S. core banking providers: Hashim Toussaint, General Manager of Digital & Open Banking at FIS; Chad Killingsworth, Head of Engineering at Jack Henry; and Sunil Sachdev, SVP, Head of Embedded Finance at Fiserv. Among them, these three providers serve not dozens or even hundreds of banks, but thousands, as they enable the long tail of a richly diverse and populous American banking ecosystem. Given their reach, for open banking to succeed in the U.S. the cores will have to embrace it, and throughout this discussion our guests break down exactly how their firms intend to do so. The conversation covers the latest regulatory developments, including the new compliance timeline, the exclusion of smaller banks from regulatory requirements, and how the U.S. cores are ultimately being driven by the real demands of digitally-savvy consumers more than by regulatory mandates. Specifically they discuss:The role of core banking providersThe CFPB rule and compliance timelines Security frameworks and API strategies Smaller banks' exclusion from regulationThe choice to build vs. buy vs. partner

Between them, they provide a global perspective on the evolution of open banking, not only based on activity in different regions, but across the three main pillars of open banking infrastructure: data sharing, real-time payments, and digital identity. David delves into the UK's early open banking implementation, Don explores the U.S.' market-driven approach to open finance, and Michelle shares her advocacy for a human-rights-based view of data ownership. From universal data rights to the rise of digital wallets, this conversation provides a comprehensive look at where the open banking standard is today and where it is headed.

Matt Cohen and John Ruffolo talk about the BDC Capital $1B fund, the state of early-stage VC funding in Canada, and the rise of mega-deals dominated by U.S. investors. They also discuss the feasibility of the Quebec City-Toronto high-speed rail project, AI copyright lawsuits, potential Trump-era tariffs, and the future of open banking in Canada.Key TopicsBDC Capital's $1B Growth-Stage Investment Fund (00:42)* BDC Capital announces a $1B investment fund, with:* $500M Growth Venture Fund for direct investments and co-investments.* $450M Growth Equity Partners Program for minority stake investments in mid-market companies.* Concerns were raised by Mark McQueen about lack of early-stage funding* John Ruffolo's take:* Canada's early-stage VC ecosystem is underfunded.* BDC was meant to focus on riskier, early-stage investments, while EDC (Export Development Canada) focused on growth-stage.* Shift towards later-stage funding may leave early-stage startups without necessary capital.Canadian Venture Capital Funding Trends (04:55)* CVCA's 2024 report:* $7.86B invested across 592 deals, up 10% from 2023.* Mega deals ($50M+ rounds) comprised 62% of total VC investments.* Seed-stage funding fell 50% to $510M.* Notable mega-deals:* Clio – $1.24B Series F* Cohere – $616M Series D* Blockstream – $289M convertible note* Waabi – $275M Series B* U.S. investors dominate:* 32% of Canadian VC deals had U.S. investor participation.* Clio's round was entirely U.S.-funded.* John Ruffolo's analysis:* Canada needs stronger domestic venture capital.* U.S. capital will always flow into late-stage companies, but early-stage funding is crucial for long-term ecosystem growth.* Lack of Canadian IPOs in 2024 is a concerning sign.Quebec City-Toronto High-Speed Rail: $90B Boondoggle? (09:17)* Massive infrastructure proposal:* $60B–$90B price tag, with $3.9B allocated to planning alone.* Construction won't begin for at least five years, taking 5–7 years per segment.* Criticisms:* Timing is political (announced right before an election).* Where is the funding coming from? Canada's finances are already stretched.* Route selection is questionable – e.g., Laval getting a stop over Mississauga/Brampton.* John Ruffolo's take:* Financial viability is unclear – pension funds won't invest without guarantees of ridership.* Other priorities (e.g., Arctic infrastructure, national security) are being ignored.* The government should invest in digital infrastructure instead (e.g., full 5G coverage).AI Copyright Lawsuits: Cohere vs. Media Giants (14:35)* Major media coalition (The Atlantic, Forbes, The Guardian, Vox, etc.) sues AI startup Cohere for copyright infringement in New York.* Allegations: Cohere scraped and displayed copyrighted content without permission.* Seeking $150K per work infringed + an injunction against Cohere using their content.* Growing legal pressure on AI companies:* NY Times vs. OpenAI – potentially setting a massive precedent.* Anthropic, Meta, and Thomson Reuters have faced similar lawsuits.* John Ruffolo's view:* Copyright concerns were always an issue for AI models.* AI startups may have to pay into a licensing pool (like the music industry).* Investor risk increasing – legal uncertainties may impact funding for public LLMs.Trump's Potential Tariffs: What Canada Should Do (19:25)* Trump's trade policies likely to return if re-elected, impacting Canadian businesses.* John Ruffolo's recommendations:* Canada must fix internal issues first (e.g., interprovincial trade barriers).* Tariffs won't disappear for at least four years, so businesses must adapt.* Canadian businesses will have to shift profits & operations to the U.S. to remain competitive.The Future of Open Banking in Canada (22:00)* U.S. fintech sector gains a boost as Trump administration removes CFPB regulations.* Chime & Klarna expected to benefit from deregulation.* Canadian Conservatives promise major push for open banking if elected.* Liberals have been slow to act on open banking despite six years of promises.John Ruffolo's perspective:* Open banking will make Canadian banks stronger, not weaker.* Canada must prepare for U.S. competition in financial services.Follow Matt Cohen and Tank Talks here!Podcast production support provided by Agentbee.ai This is a public episode.

APIs have evolved from simple data connectors to the fundamental architecture driving financial innovation. In this episode of the Tearsheet Podcast, I speak with John Pitts. Plaid's John Pitts reveals how they're driving open banking and empowering consumer control. He is the Global Head of Policy at Plaid. With a career spanning regulatory and policy roles, Pitts brings a unique perspective to the table. He discusses the evolving role of APIs in financial services. From his role at the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) to leading policy at Plaid, Pitts shares key insights on open banking. He explores how APIs are shaping the future of consumer financial data rights and fintech innovation. The Big Ideas 1. APIs Are the Backbone of Modern Financial Services. They serve as the foundation for modern financial services. This enables secure, efficient, and scalable data sharing. “It's like moving from dirt roads to highways,” Pitts explains. 2. Consumer Control Powers the Future of Open Banking. APIs empower consumers to access and share their financial data across platforms. This fosters innovation. “The U.S. has more connected accounts than anywhere else,” Pitts notes. 3. Embedded Finance Is Becoming a Key Use Case for APIs. Companies outside the financial sector, such as Tesla and John Deere, are adopting APIs for integrated financial services. 4. APIs Enable Stronger Collaboration to Prevent Digital Fraud.

In this episode, we'll explore the key aspects of this landmark regulation, such as: 1. The scope, rule requirements, and compliance deadlines 2. Complexities of implementing new interfaces and data security measures 3. Potential pitfalls and best practices to mitigate risks, including a lawsuit challenging the legality of the rule 4. How the rule can foster innovation and enhanced consumer experiences 5.

Lex interviews Shachar Bialick, the founder and CEO of Curve, a fintech mobile wallet. In this exciting episode, Shachar touches on: (1) his background as a serial entrepreneur and his experience in the Israeli military shaped his ability to solve problems and work in high-stress environments, which are key traits for a successful founder. (2) The initial idea behind Curve was to create a "wallet to rule them all" - a single interface that could consolidate and manage multiple payment cards and accounts, providing more value and convenience to customers. (3) Building Curve involved navigating complex challenges, such as convincing payment networks like Mastercard and Visa to change their rules to allow Curve's back-to-back wallet technology. This required a resilient, innovative, and persistence approach. (4) Shachar emphasizes the importance of building a company culture that fosters curiosity, adaptability, and a belief that "everything is possible" rather than focusing on perceived limitations. (5) Lastly, Shachar discusses the evolution of the fintech landscape, including the challenges faced by neobanks in creating true financial marketplaces, and the ongoing issues with the implementation of open banking standards. MENTIONED IN THE CONVERSATION Topics: Curve, ApplePay, Google Wallet, PayPal, Tink, neobank, fintech, wallets, payments, paytech, NFC, Open Banking ABOUT THE FINTECH BLUEPRINT 

Does the United States have open banking? Well, that depends on how it's defined. If that definition is less about regulation and more about the adoption of a common technical standard for the secure exchange of financial data, then the U.S. is considerably further along. Much of this progress is due to the Financial Data Exchange (FDX), a private non-profit founded in 2018 to unite players across financial services in creating a common standard for consent-driven data sharing. For the final, extra-length episode of Season 5, Kevin Feltes, the new CEO of FDX, joins us to discuss the state of American open banking amidst the regulatory changes unfolding under Section 1033. Eyal and Kevin sit down to talk about all things FDX, sharing the organization's origins, what's in the FDX tool belt to help it punch above its weight, and what it means for FDX to operate at the intersection of regulatory and market forces. Diving into possible futures, they unpack how flexibility is the key to ensuring American open banking continues to grow and thrive. Specifically they discuss:The origins of the Financial Data ExchangeHow the FDX API is member-drivenThe impact of Section 1033 regulationBalancing market and regulatory forcesThe role FDX plays in U.S. open banking

Send us a textOpen banking - two words that just may change your life and this change is coming at you, ready or not.In late October the CFPB finalized a rule that made open banking a must have for the nation's biggest financial institutions by April 1 2026  - and by April 1 2030 the bigger credit unions will have to comply too.Don't ask me to explain the choice of April 1. It's a rather infelicitous choice but open banking is  nonetheless a good thing, for FIs and their customers/members.Here's what CFPB has to say about it: “Too many Americans are stuck in financial products with lousy rates and service,” said CFPB Director Rohit Chopra. “Today's action will give people more power to get better rates and service on bank accounts, credit cards, and more.”The Bureau goes on: “Today's rule ensures consumers will be able to access and share data associated with bank accounts, credit cards, mobile wallets, payment apps, and other financial products. It aims to address market concentration that limits consumer choice over financial products and services. Consumers will be able to access, or authorize a third party to access, data such as transaction information, account balance information, information needed to initiate payments, upcoming bill information, and basic account verification information. Financial providers must make this information available without charging fees.”Right now, radio silence about open banking prevails in credit union land - AI has sucked up almost all of the industry's tech energy - but that will change as calendar pages flip us closer to the deadline for compliance.Yes, it's true that the vast majority of credit unions will never have to comply.  FIs with assets under $850 million are exempt.But choosing to ignore open banking may be signing an institution's death certificate as members and prospective members grasp how open banking is in their best interest.But here's the deal: on the show today is Lisa Arthur who tells why embracing open banking is in the best interests of just about every credit union.  She also tells how open banking already is well established in many countries - the US is a laggard - and what's involved in climbing aboard this train.Listen up.Like what you are hearing?

Lindsey Johnson, CEO and president of the Consumer Bankers Association, talks about how the CFPB may change under the second Trump administration. Will a Trump-appointed CFPB director roll back the recently finalized open data rule? What happens for banks and consumers if that rule is left to stand? She also tackles the future of the agency's overdraft proposal and small business lending rule. 

In the ever-evolving world of fintech and open banking, staying ahead of the curve is crucial. Few understand this better than Peter Renton. He is the CEO and founder of Renton Co., a fintech consulting firm specializing in media, thought leadership, and event support. Renton is the former chairman and co-founder of Fintech Nexus (formerly LendIt Fintech). He has led fintech innovation for over a decade. His work has shaped the industry during this time. In today's episode of the Tearsheet podcast, Renton shared his insights on the current state of fintech. He shares his insights on where he sees the industry heading. Renton has a keen understanding of the fintech sector. His insights provide valuable guidance for established companies and newcomers in the industry. "Without doubt, the most interesting space in fintech in 2024 is the banking as a service space," Renton states. "Because of the way the banking system in this country is structured, we need banking as a service. And it's not going away." The evolution of fintech events Renton's journey in the fintech world was punctuated with the creation of LendIt. It is a conference that grew from a small gathering of 350 people to a major industry event attracting 5,000 attendees. As the fintech landscape evolved, so did the event. It expanded its focus from peer-to-peer lending to encompass broader fintech topics. "We expanded beyond lending and started it in 2017 and got going in like 2018, 2019 where we became a real fintech event," Renton explains. This evolution mirrors the broader changes in the fintech industry. These include specialized lending platforms to comprehensive financial services providers. The changing face of fintech conferences Large-scale events like Money 2020 and Fintech Meetup still attract many attendees. Renton observes a rising trend of smaller, more specialized events organized by fintech companies. "What you're seeing in the event space is more and more companies doing their small events," he observes. These specialized gatherings allow companies to showcase thought leadership. They help to engage with their target audience. Opportunities in Banking-as-a-Service and Embedded Finance Renton sees significant potential in the banking-as-a-service (BaaS) sector, despite recent challenges. He believes that new regulations will provide clarity and stability. This will create opportunities for community banks. As a result, they will be able to expand their reach through BaaS offerings. "If you want to grow your community bank, it's hard to do that geographically now," Renton explains. "But if you open up a BaaS line of business, there are ways you can grow your bank." Embedded finance is closely related to BaaS. It is another area Renton highlights as ripe for innovation. He points to companies like Pipe. They are bringing fintech solutions to non-financial businesses. Particularly in the vertical SaaS space. The promise of Open Banking Looking ahead, Renton is particularly excited about the potential of open banking. With the anticipated release of new CFPB rules on open banking, he foresees a wave of innovation. "Open banking... is going to be a moment in time, but then that's going to be in place and people are going to understand the rules of the road," Renton predicts. "I think there's a massive opportunity once that gets going. And when all the data, when your data becomes yours and it becomes more portable. There's going to be a wave of new fintech companies that are going to kind of use that and take advantage of that."

On Tuesday, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) released the final version of the Personal Financial Data Rights Rule that requires many financial institutions, credit card issuers, and other financial service providers that facilitate payments (including mobile wallets and payment apps) to support new open banking standards and make account records accessible and portable.

John Pitts, Global Head of Policy at Plaid, Christy Sunquist, Head of Open Finance at Plaid, and Cameron Taylor, Chief Product Officer at Ninth Wave join Jason and Brett as they dive into topics from international open banking and the standards that we can expect out of open banking in the U.S., to how Plaid and Ninth Wave are partnering to assist financial institutions ahead of the rulemaking here in the States.

Ninth Wave is Plaid's inaugural partner for the Gateway Program, and will support financial institutions who want to simplify their API integrations while ensuring their customers have access to the thousands of apps and services in the Plaid network. Together, Plaid and Ninth Wave are solving open banking requirements for financial institutions who may be at varying stages of preparedness.

Just months after many of the mandates in the European Union's Digital Markets Act (DMA) have gone into effect, interoperability and data portability are fresh on the policy world's mind. But what does the history of interoperability suggest about its ability to help the Internet regain its former openness?Alan Rozenshtein, Associate Professor of Law at the University of Minnesota and Senior Editor at Lawfare, spoke with Alexander Rigby, a law clerk on Delaware Court of Chancery, and Chinmayi Sharma, Associate Professor at Fordham Law School. They've just published a new white paper in Lawfare's ongoing Digital Social Contract paper series arguing that open banking is a useful case study in the promise and pitfalls of interoperability.To receive ad-free podcasts, become a Lawfare Material Supporter at www.patreon.com/lawfare.
