What is open banking and how does Australia meet global open banking standards?

With the embrace of big data practices and the emergence of fintech and neobank players, the worlds of banking, technology and data transparency have collided, sending ripples throughout the entire financial services ecosystem. Open banking is now the common denominator, as banks are doing more than just managing and safeguarding money.

The open banking framework implores banks to hand over access and control of financial data to consumers. While Australia is one of the newer entrants into the banking regime, the UK has had open banking mandates in place since 2016. But what is open banking, how does it affect consumers and how will Australia measure up to the UK?
