In an era defined by digital transformation and financial democratisation, OpenFuture World stands at the forefront of the global open banking and open finance movement.
As an essential hub for industry stakeholders, innovators, and regulators, OpenFuture World has positioned itself as more than just a news source—it’s a catalyst for collaboration and innovation in financial services.
What is OpenFuture World?
OpenFuture World is a global platform dedicated to tracking, supporting, and accelerating the development of open finance ecosystems around the world. At its core, it offers resources, news, insights, and a curated directory of organisations that are shaping the future of finance.
From APIs to data sharing regulations, OpenFuture World helps stakeholders understand how open banking is reshaping the financial landscape.
Founded with the belief that the future of finance should be open, inclusive, and interoperable, the platform brings together banks, fintechs, regulators, and tech providers in one cohesive community.
Why Open Finance Matters
Open finance builds upon the foundations of open banking, expanding access to financial data and services beyond traditional banking.
It empowers consumers to take control of their financial information, giving them the ability to securely share data with third parties for a wide range of services—from lending and payments to wealth management and insurance.
This evolution holds transformative potential: fostering competition, driving innovation, and enabling personalised, data-driven financial products. With proper safeguards, open finance can also promote greater financial inclusion by making services more accessible to underbanked populations.
