Open Banking Expo will bring together a cross section of the UK’s brightest minds to put the second payment services directive (PSD2) under the spotlight and encourage financial services – and other industry sectors – to embrace the new legislation in order to drive product innovation and enhance customer experience.
Confirmed speakers at the Open Banking Expo include Anne Boden, Chief Executive of Starling Bank, Becky Moffatt, Head of Personal Banking at HSBC, Bill Roberts, Head of Open Banking at the Competition & Markets Authority, John Roughly, Director of Strategy at Experian, Lana Tahirly Abdullayeva, Director of Open Banking and PSD2 at Lloyds Banking Group, and Imran Gulamhuseinwala, EY’s Global Head of FinTech, who is also a trustee of the Open Banking Implementation Entity.
Julian Wells, Director of Whitecap Consulting and FinTech North, will chair the event and said:
“Open Banking has been one of the most eagerly awaited developments in the financial services industry in recent years and offers huge potential to drive dramatic changes in an established industry. There is no doubt that the full impact has yet to be seen, which makes this a perfect time for a conference like the Open Banking Expo, where the key issues can be debated by an impressive range of industry experts.”
Adam Cox, Founder & Event Director of Open Banking Expo, says:
“Open Banking Expo will focus on how Open Banking will impact multiple-industries. It has been created to help business leaders truly evaluate the opportunities and risks that Open Banking presents. It provides an unrivalled forum for these influencers to exchange ideas, debate viewpoints, reveal their approaches to the same market challenges, and share experience in an environment of their peers.”
