Avaloq EMEA regional manager Paco Hauser said: “Banks operating in the European Economic Area have to comply with PSD2 but will also face competitive risks if they do not stay in control of their clients’ user journeys and data as they integrate with third-party services.

“This raises significant considerations around seamless performance, authentication and security, GDPR and costs, to name a few.

“Our new solutions have been developed to address these challenges and let banks and wealth managers benefit by giving their clients access to new functionalities while retaining ownership of the primary client relationship.”

The new PSD2 solutions offer multiple deployment options to fit into different configurations.
