Open Banking Expo Awards launch to recognise excellence across the sector
Open Banking Expo launches its Awards scheme to celebrate the significant progress of Open Banking across the global financial services sector. Equifax is the launch partner of the scheme.
The ceremony will take place in London, UK on 15 July, and the scheme is now open for entries.
The entry deadline is on May 28th 2021 and can be submitted via www.openbankingexpoawards.com.
Open Banking has driven the most significant digital transformation shift in financial services in recent times to stimulate competition, drive innovation and offer consumers and businesses alike greater control in managing their finances.
The Open Banking Expo Awards is the only independent awards scheme in the Open Banking space.
It will celebrate the innovators, disruptors and visionaries across the globe who have been at the forefront of the Open Banking revolution.
The scheme offers 12 categories, which can be found at www.openbankingexpoawards.com/live/en/page/categories.
They include awards for the Best Open Banking Partnership, Best App Proposition, Best Customer Experience and the Open Banking for Good award.
The #PowerOfTheNetwork award is in association with Open Banking Implementation Entity (OBIE), which will recognise the best industry response to the Covid-19 crisis.
Dependent on the success of the UK Government roadmap, the awards will take place in-person during Fintech Week London at Level 39, London. The ceremony will be broadcast virtually to engage a global audience.
