Good Financial Data Goes Beyond Bank Statements

IPA Payments Pod

When we think of consumer financial data, the first thing that comes to mind is usually banking data, but that is an incomplete picture.

This was borne out in a recent executive order, in which the Biden Administration encouraged the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) to issue rules allowing customers to download their banking data and take it with them.

Increasingly portability of banking data can help consumers, but a more robust picture can be painted by making sure consumers have easy access to their own payroll data as well, says Lindsay, Davis, the head of markets for Atomic Financial.

In this episode, we discuss the importance of payroll data and how better access to it can improve the lives of consumers and make things easier for businesses and financial services companies.
