Live @ Fintech Americas, 2025 - Brazil Redux
Recorded live at Fintech Americas, in Miami Florida, Eyal is joined by Matheus Rauber, Senior Advisor and Head of the Open Finance division at the Central Bank of Brazil. Of all the countries that have begun their open banking journeys, few have been as successful as Brazil. Today, their open finance ecosystem supports broad consent-based data sharing (including for insurance and investments), seamless integration with a public real-time payment rail, and a comprehensive trust framework for accreditation and liability. While many are familiar with Brazil's early success in 2021, far fewer know what has happened since then; this conversation revisits Brazil, to see where they are today, four years later. Eyal and Matheus discuss how Brazil achieved their early success, some of the challenges they have faced since, and where they intend to go next in maintaining their coveted position as global leaders.
Specifically they discuss:
- Brazil's road towards open finance
- Challenges faced along the way
- Balancing the market and regulations
- The critical importance of governance
- Next steps for Brazilian open finance
