PSD2 - Open Bank Project

What is PSD2?

The revised Payment Services Directive (PSD2) is a European regulation that requires banks to create mechanisms to enable third-party providers to work securely, reliably and rapidly with the bank’s services and data on behalf and with the consent of their customers. Whilst PSD2 does not explicitly require banks to use Application Programming Interfaces (APIs) to meet their obligations, they quickly became standard practice.
