£23m to establish a Global Open Finance Centre of Excellence in Edinburgh

We’re investing £23million to establish the Global Open Finance Centre of Excellence in #Edinburgh through our #StrengthInPlaces Fund, positioning Central Scotland as an internationally competitive region for open #banking.

The new centre will position Central Scotland as an internationally competitive region for open banking, develop world-class technology and education and deliver social and economic benefits.

The project builds on the region’s existing financial services expertise -126,000 people are already employed in this sector in Central Scotland.

Led by Edinburgh University, it will provide a trusted environment to address the societal challenges and research around Open Finance.

The project will draw on expertise from Scotland’s universities, financial services and financial technology sectors. It will establish ethical standards, train new talent and build local, national and international partnerships. #StrengthInPlaces #fintech #openbanking
