It offers 12 recommendations to policy makers to ensure that open finance contributes to a financial services sector that works for everyone. The paper is the result of collaboration between third sector organisations, first convened by the Lab and StepChange Debt Charity in 2020. ADD LINK
Barriers to Growing the Purpose-driven Banking Sector in the UK is a discussion paper published by the Finance Innovation Lab in December 2020.
