Report
Understanding APIs in Banking 2017
The past year has seen a growing interest in open APIs in banking, notably triggered by PSD2 in Europe and the Open Banking Standard in the U.K.

- Corporate culture is still the main challenge facing Open Banking initiatives, but banks are working on It with some success.
- Europe has taken a clear lead in Open Banking
