In 6 months PSD2 APIs will be reality: Developers are our hope now!
It is only six (!) months until 14 September 2019, the day the Regulatory Technical Standards (RTS) of the European Banking Authority (EBA) on Strong Customer Authentication (SCA) and communication, i.e. the communication between banks and third party providers under the PSD2, must be applied. One focus of the ongoing discussions in the market is the PSD2 interfaces to be expected by then. In February I was invited to participate with other market representatives in a BaFin workshop discussing the status quo. My main conclusion: We now have to shift the last open issues from the conference table into the heads of our developers.
