The idea is that with this information on hand, financial institutions can offer customized and cheaper products. Another change can be felt when opening an account with a bank or fintech. With the sharing of registration data, the process should be simpler and faster.

The promise is that this data sharing will stimulate competition, which should lead to lower fees charged by banks, including interest.

For example, if a fintech company can access a 15-year credit history of a large bank client, it can offer that person cheaper and more personalized products.

In addition, in the future, the company can launch a complex of credit offers, and using the customer’s credit history, you can offer offers that are cheaper and with better conditions.
