The revised Consumer Credit Directive 2 (CCD2) in Europe pushes lenders to adopt Open Banking data access for more accurate creditworthiness assessment, combining speed and responsibility in lending decisions. Enhanced transaction data analytics and transparency improve lending accuracy and consumer trust, shifting focus from past credit history to real-time financial resilience.
