Episode 69 - An Era of Consent - SCA, Open banking & Digital identity

This years' Sibos event was titled “Thriving in a hyper-connected world,” recognising the growth opportunities available from digital technologies to initiate new platforms, value propositions and business models. As we enter this new digital era powered by APIs, we also enter an era of consumer consent and data compliance. 

I caught up with Tony McLaughlin, Head of Emerging Payments at Citi to talk about the push back on Strong Customer Authentication (SCA), how merchants can overcome sales related friction factors once live and how to address two factor authentication for vulnerable customers, who should own digital customer identity with some case studies from around the globe, how the industry is tracking with the monetisation of Open Banking as well as the announcement of Citi's new API's looking to address this.
