As businesses adopt and create APIs at an accelerating pace, API estates have grown exponentially. APIs enhance the customer experience, enable fintech collaboration and partner connectivity, and support industry initiatives like open banking.
“Financial services organisations need thoughtful strategies for their APIs as rapid API growth has introduced fragmentation in how APIs are designed, built, and secured, making it difficult for financial institutions to easily realize the advantages of an open platform,” said Arnab Mitra, Program Manager at BIAN. “BIAN has set standards for financial APIs, easing integration challenges for users. Together with SwaggerHub, financial institutions like BIAN are easily consuming these standards and driving forward FinTech innovation.”
SwaggerHub fosters API collaboration and standardization across multiple teams. By leveraging SwaggerHub as your single source of truth for API definitions, teams deliver high-quality APIs to market faster. The webinar includes a live demo of the BIAN model and API landscape using SwaggerHub.
The webinar also covers standards and governance trends in the fintech API development space and benefits of open banking and partner ecosystem connectivity.
