Global API Solutions Expert Ready to Assist Financial Service Innovators Moving to a More Open and Competitive Market

Sensedia, a global leader in delivering API solutions for companies adopting a more digital, connected, and open strategy, today voiced affirmation and enthusiasm for the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau’s (CFPB) recent announcement on moving toward decentralized and more open finance and banking in the United States.

"The United States is lagging behind the rest of the world when it comes to open and connected financial services," said Marcilio Oliveira, Sensedia's co-founder and Chief of Growth. "Our experience working with some of Brazil's largest financial institutions to create a more open environment has revolutionized how they access legacy data, secure sharing of critical information across platforms, simplify and speed up digital product development, and generate new revenue streams and customers. The US market is ripe for innovation and ready to find more secure ways to decentralize innovation. Sensedia's powerful yet simplified approach to API development will connect them in ways that weren't possible in closed markets and create new possibilities for the future of finance."

Sensedia's leadership team agrees with CFPB's director Rohit Chopra that a more open ecosystem, broadly inclusive of both consumers and businesses, holds great promise for all. Moving away from screen scraping to safer, standardized data-sharing practices followed by both the data holder and receiver will better secure personal information. When consumers have more options to add services or move accounts safely, businesses will step up to earn their business, and everyone wins. Sensedia has experience working in global markets to support similar initiatives successfully.

"Partnerships with our Brazilian customers have yielded amazing results. We've helped them become more flexible to generate new revenue streams, supported gateways to use their new services with agility and speed, and transitioned them to agile, modern, and integrated architectures," said Oliveira. "We're obsessed with creating customer success and have achieved a ‘100% Willingness to Recommend’ on Gartner Peer Insights. We're excited to start creating exciting success stories with US customers as we work together toward a more open and connected North American financial market."
