Open Banking and Financial Inclusion

"Ellie Duncan skilfully explains the impact of financial exclusion for all economies - whether as a result of geography, race, gender, education or employment status - and examines what different jurisdictions are doing to minimise its impact. For those of us who believe that open banking should ultimately improve the lives of all consumers, Open Banking and Financial Inclusion is a well-researched and much needed study." * David Beardmore, Ecosystems Development Director, Raidiam *

"Open banking has the potential to be the largest transformation in the history of financial services. But why has it been slow to roll out in some countries, and has it helped the unbanked in those that have? Ellie Duncan takes the reader on a deep dive to find out. An excellent resource to understand the key challenges and opportunities on the journey towards open banking." * Kelly Stanley, Co-founder, Open Banking Expo *
