Using open banking to support the debt advice process - register interest

Since July 2019, our digital project has been using open banking to attempt to speed up the initial information-gathering within the debt advice process. We're hosting a webinar to discuss the use of open banking and how it can support the debt advice process.

What will the session involve?

This webinar will introduce and explore the use of open banking and digital channels to support the debt advice process.

The session provides participants with the opportunity to understand what open banking is, its current uses within the financial sector, and how it’s being harnessed by Money Advice Scotland to support our members with capturing I&E and identifying consumer credit debts.

As we embrace new ways of working, this session will welcome discussion on how these tools can provide a new approach to understanding an individual’s financial situation and prepare clients for dealing with their debt and money worries.

Who should attend this session?

This session aims to provide information on open banking to money and debt advice practitioners.

Additional info

The webinar will last for one hour. Details for this Zoom session will be shared with participants closer to the time.
