Identity and Trust in the Digital Economy
Digital ID - what is it & what will it be?
Banks and governments need to develop a framework around digital identity. Which international standards and principles will foster trust, compatibility and interoperability, as we determine the path forward for ID applications in financial services?
Identity proofing in a remote world
FIs must be able to establish the identity of their customers – accurately, securely and seamlessly, while meeting evolving regulation. With a growing demand for remote services, will new solutions deliver on their promise to replace physical identity checks?
Banks & the identity ecosystem
Are banks uniquely placed to close the gap on identity? They perform KYC and AML functions in daily operations, have a regulated use of customer data and higher than average consumer trust. What role do FIs play in building a global standard for digital identity?
Fighting fraud with strong authentication
Identity systems are increasingly being attacked by fraudsters. Do new approaches promise improved detection and prevention of financial crime? Which solutions offer the strongest alternative to password-based systems – granting confidence in the security of identity data.
Open frameworks for progress
PSD2 not only ushered in Strong Customer Authentication, but the promise of Open Banking through APIs. By connecting identity data from multiple sources, Open Banking could deliver more reliable verification and improve customer experience. But how close is this goal to being realised?
A model for self-sovereign identity
Digital ID should enhance privacy and consent, granting users control over how their personal credentials are shared. Will financial services embrace a decentralised ID model? What about the role that blockchain will have to play in identity?
