Finicity’s Lisa Kimball on how consumer-permissioned data is changing the financial consumer’s user experience
For the past month, a lot of our work on Tearsheet has been focused on data aggregation. When we started researching the topic, we quickly appreciated how data aggregation -- the kind that's permissioned by users and shared with other applications -- has become the backbone of the modern financial ecosystem. It's literally everything -- enabling new experiences, better designed services and products, and hopefully helps create better financial outcomes. Our work culminated with a webinar to tie together a lot of the topics we explored. Fincity's Lisa Kimball, vp of strategic partnerships, took the lead on describing a new type of customer experience -- one with financial data at its core. Here are the slides (there's a YouTube video of the session on slide 2) from the webinar. During the webinar, we discussed the following topics:
  • What trends that are impacting the customer experience?
  • What is consumer-permissioned data and how can it be used?
  • How has this empowered consumers in a way they haven’t been before?
  • Let’s talk about financial inclusion. Can you explain how permissioned data can enhance financial inclusion and provide greater decisioning accuracy?
  • How are leading financial institutions leveraging data to improve customer experience?
  • What are the challenges of using this data?
  • Where do you see this heading? What does a banking customer look like and do in the future?
  • Credit scores are interesting. People have a greater understanding of them and their importance but they haven’t been able to affect them. But that doesn’t sound like what we’re talking about. What’s happening in that space?

As tides shift against screen scraping, complications abound for smaller FIs

  • Screen scraping is experiencing increased scrutiny from regulators and competition from API-based solutions. The practice may finally be on its way out.
  • But what would an API-based data sharing environment look like? How will the transition away screen scraping occur and would it be fair to all institutions?
