Open banking Definition.

The opening of payment accounts to licensed third parties through APIs, mandated by PSD2: account information services (AISPs) and payment initiation services (PISPs). Banks must provide dedicated, high-performing interfaces under regulatory oversight. The upcoming EU framework (FIDA and the PSD3 package) is set to extend data sharing beyond payments, into savings, credit, and insurance, toward open finance.
