    This week, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau released the final 1033 rule which ensures strong data rights for consumers in financial services. Plaid was founded on the belief that consumers should have a right to access and share their financial data to get the financial products that work for them. Here’s how we’re already helping customers and data partners navigate this regulatory shift: 💡 We introduced solutions for our customers to help with authorization management, record retention, and risk management that will align to the final rule. 💡 We launched an FDX-aligned Open Finance solution suite that enables financial institutions to more easily migrate to API connectivity, support risk management, and ensure insight into consumer connections across the Plaid Network.  💡 We’ve put consumers in control of their data with solutions like Plaid Portal, which helps consumers view and control connections they’ve made through Plaid. More updates to come as we continue to analyze the final rule, connect with customers, and tailor our products to build a more open financial ecosystem.

    From the early days of building a PFM app, to powering financial data connectivity everywhere, Plaid has quietly stood up the single most important bedrock for financial services: a financial identity network.   This network is powering consumer finances across almost every aspect of our financial lives. - Insights that help you better manage your money  - Real-time access to your financial health across all accounts - bank, credit, investments - Digital income and employment verification - Faster, low cost bank payments Under the hood, the network is also powering one of their emerging capabilities, anti fraud. Fraud detection technology is hardly new, but Plaid’s ability to bring their network into that equation makes everything more interesting. Could Plaid become the silent killer of identity fraud that financial services companies are continuing to struggle with? This edition of This Week in Fintech by Jas Shah dives into Plaid’s history, its broad tapestry of products, its growing customer base and the big bets over the next few years… https://lnkd.in/ekX3YKAH
