Integration of Advanced Technology Positions Axway as a Market Leader, Empowering Financial Institutions to Comply with New CFPB Rule and Unlock Additional Revenue Streams
PHOENIX – October 23, 2024 – The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) has just finalized a U.S. open banking rule that is set to revolutionize the industry, driving banks to adopt API technologies that not only future-proof their operations but also unlock significant new business opportunities.
Following Axway’s recent acquisition of SBS, we are proud to reaffirm our commitment to the ongoing support and development of open banking. By integrating SBS’s advanced technology, Axway has further enhanced its solution for open banking, open finance, and beyond, positioning it as a market leader.
Axway gives financial services firms the tools, flexibility, and scalability they need to unlock their customer data securely and comply with the new CFPB rule that aims to accelerate responsible open banking in the United States.
