Dear Subscriber,

In this issue of the PaymentEye e-newsletter Tom Hay, Head of Payments at Icon Solutions discusses how banks and financial services should prepare for PSD2 and how the industry will transform following the implementation in 2018.

And carrying on the theme of mobile PSD2, we discuss how banks should be reacting to the regulation and how PSD2 offers incumbents a wealth of opportunities, as long as they’re on board.

We hope you enjoy the issue.

Now just six months away, PSD2 is poised to create a dramatic shift in the European banking landscape, by granting TPPs and fintechs access to customer account data. How can banks take advantage of the change?

With six months to go until the directive comes into force, Leonie Mercedes discusses why it’s time for banks to start asking themselves some serious questions.
