Implication of the Payment Services Directive

• Payment services directives 2 passed on January 12

• Must be included in domestic legislation in 2 years

• Among other things, requires that banks open up, operate as APIs

• Intention is to improve consumer experience

• Some precedent (e.g. Tink), but no longer discretionary

• What does this mean for FinTech?
