The global open banking systems market is anticipated to grow over the forecast period in line with the advances in technology, the subsequent rise in the adoption of big data analytics, and the shifting focus of retail banks from independent technology projects to consolidated technological improvement.

Competition within the open banking systems market is intensifying as several banks are shifting their conventional focus on products to provide more customer-centric services. As such, banks are looking forward to leveraging the available customer data, advances in technology, big data analytics, and artificial intelligence to provide innovative and personalized services tailored to the changing requirements of individual customers, thereby driving the growth of the market. However, growing concerns over the misuse of personal data, online frauds, and data security are hampering the growth of the market.

Based on the region, the open banking systems market has been further segmented into North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, Latin America, and the Middle East & Africa (MEA). The North American regional market holds the largest market share as the banking institutions in the region is making aggressive investments in developing APIs. On the other hand, Asia Pacific is expected to emerge as the fastest-growing regional market, particularly because China is increasingly adopting the open banking system. While China holds a strong potential for innovation, there are no mandatory API specifications in the country.
