Will Open Banking trigger the API of Me?
Chris Wood@sensiblewood
What is the “API of Me”?
The access point for your Personal Data Store
Me2B== Establishing the relationship between you and the
businesses you engage with on your terms
== Secure, tailored & curated experience vs. traditional loudhailer approach
A Personal Data Store
•The place where you aggregate & take control of your data & offer it to satisfy your needs
•Centralized or federated
Monetary
Social
Health
Intentions
Repeats
Location & Transport
Habitual
Document Management
Example - Meeco• Series of curated
views - ‘tiles’• Makes your data
relevant to you (and your family, pets, etc.)
• Helps you understand your data based on your wants & needs
Example - Mydex
• Allows consumers to securely share their data
• Series of foci dependent on what your interest
• Note the focus on consumercontrol
Example - Trunomi
• Approach is federation vs centralisation
• Manage data in situ
• Work on behalf of business to benefit of the consumer
Can a PDS access all our data (via APIs?)
In some areas YESe.g. Social
In others NOe.g. Banking
So might Open Banking be important?Open Banking + PDS = Source of meaningful data
Rich personal data source: monetary, habits, intentions, etc.
Potential for easy data acquisition with a framework for security
== Backbone for secure access
Prospects for Open Banking & the API of Me?
Open Banking unlikely to happen organically as a “pure” initiativeRegulation may provide the motivation
Vendors will sell the dream - CTOs looking for a dream catcher
PSD2: Possibility of technical fragmentationLocal initiatives and schemes: CMA (UK), FinTS (Germany), etc
The API of Me without Open Banking?
Usual suspects:
• Screen scraping• Manual updates (CSV, etc.)
• Aggregators – potential to become de facto standard
== Might be more pain but not unachievable
Round Up
The API of Me will happen without Open BankingOpen Banking “done right” will definitely accelerate
Regulation may affect how Open Banking implemented
Growth of the API of Me likely to be slower without it
