LUXHUB, the European Open Banking API Platform service provider will organise the 1st European Banking Panel taking place on the 13th of March 2019 at Espace Namur in Luxembourg.

We’re reaching the final act of the PSD2 timeline. Open Banking will change the mind and culture and most important increase the competition of payments in Europe with an impressive speed.

The Regulatory Technical Standards of the second Payment Services Directive specifies that on March 14, 2019 doors must open by letting interested regulated third parties explore the open banking ecosystem and start developing applications around it. Financial Institutions should open a sandbox environment ready to onboard third parties where testing can be done without exposing any sensitive information.

The First European Open Banking Panel has as purpose the gathering of specialists and experts that will share, discuss and develop the massive amount of information that all the financial institutions need to acknowledge during the next months.

LUXHUB is putting on the same roof key Open Banking experts for an open discussion regarding the new digital future on the 13th of March 2019 at Espace Namur Luxembourg, starting 17:00.

Among speakers we quote:
