Changes to business models and consumer behavior, prompted by the COVID-19 pandemic, have compressed many years’ worth of transformation and digitization into the space of several months. More people and more businesses around the world have access to real-time payments in more forms than ever before.

  • Open Banking Goes East
    OPEN BANKING GOES EAST OPEN BANKING GOES EAST /01 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The paper looks at the central principles of open banking and addresses the key trends and dynamics across banks, consumers and individual regulatory environments. It also provides an overview of open banking within the APAC region, with a deeper dive on Hong Kong. The paper assesses the trends across Asia pacific when it comes to open banking regulation, the perceived maturity to embrace and adopt opening banking and the potential future developments that industry players should take into consideration. OPEN BANKING GOES EAST /02 WHAT IS OPEN BANKING? Open banking is a customer-centric response to changing consumer behaviors more generally, notably wanting more choice in everyday life. Previously banks owned the vertical value chain for their customers, distribution channels and products. Open banking has changed how incumbent banks can distribute their own products to customers, by allowing third party service providers (TSPs) to act as alternate distributors and to extend even more choice by offering additional services from different financial and non-financial institutions. The aim is to trigger greater competition across individual and cross-border markets, encourage more innovative product development, and thus provide customers with more choice and enhanced services that will better meet their needs. Banks engage with TSPs through their own developer portals. By opening up specific APIs, the banks allow TSPs to integrate them into their own applications, thus creating new propositions and more choice for the customer. Looking westwards to the UK, the benefits of open APIs and a strong developer community are evident - for example, digital bank Monzo’s developer community is helping build an even 1 richer banking experience for customers from the ground up .

  • Costs and Benefits of Building Faster Payment Systems: the U.K
    No. 14-5 Costs and Benefits of Building Faster Payment Systems: The U.K. Experience and Implications for the United States Claire Greene, Marc Rysman, Scott Schuh, and Oz Shy Abstract: A number of countries have implemented faster payment services that allow consumers and businesses to rapidly transfer money between bank accounts. These services compete with slower, existing payment services. In 2008, the United Kingdom implemented its Faster Payments Service (FPS) at a cost of less than ₤200 million (.014 percent of U.K. GDP, or $307 million) spread over seven years, plus investment costs borne by each participating bank to connect to the FPS. This paper examines the economic cost-benefit analysis underlying the U.K. FPS investment decision and describes the subsequent diffusion and use of FPS through 2013. The paper also assesses the effects that FPS likely had on the rest of the U.K. payment system and highlights key unanswered questions for future research. Based on this U.K. experience, the paper describes implications for the U.S. payment system, which the Federal Reserve has proposed to make faster in recent policy announcements. Keywords: fast payments systems, cost-benefit analysis, account-to-account (A2A) transfers, person-to-person (P2P) payments JEL codes: G210 Claire Greene, Marc Rysman, Scott Schuh, and Oz Shy are members of the Consumer Payments Research Center in the research department of the Federal Reserve Bank of Boston. Claire Greene is a payments analyst. Marc Rysman is a visiting scholar and a professor of economics at Boston University. Scott Schuh is the director of the Center and a senior economist and policy advisor.
