Episode Title:
Abraham Tachjian | Former Open Banking Lead to the Government of Canada
“Consumers don’t care about open banking… It's an industry term… They care about the capabilities that come with it.”
— Abraham Tachjian
We’re speaking with Abraham Tachjian, Open Banking Lead to the Government of Canada and the self-described authority on Open Banking. In March 2022, the Government of Canada named him the country’s open banking lead. He was tasked with the mandate to empower Canadians and businesses with greater control over their financial data. Through a report that he provided to the Government of Canada, he established the foundation for Canada’s open banking system that will be implemented through legislation.
Currently he is a Director at PwC where he heads the firm’s Canadian open banking practice. Before joining PwC, he has been involved in FinTech as a founder of a digital bank in Hong Kong and as a director at a digital banking in Singapore.
In this episode we talk about Canada’s implementation of Open Banking, how it can help consumers, and how our system might look different then systems across the globe.
Enjoy!
