Evergreen Businessmen Services - Business Setup Dubai’s Post

Dubai’s Banking Evolution: Collaboration Over Competition “Traditional banking is no longer a valid model,” emphasized Abdul Waheed Rathore, Group Chief Compliance Officer at Dubai Islamic Bank, during the Banking, Innovation, and Technology Conference by Khaleej Times. As customer demands shift towards seamless digital experiences, financial institutions must embrace open banking by integrating with fintech, government sources, and other industry players. By Q1 2025, all banks in the UAE are expected to implement application programming interfaces (APIs), driving an era of cooperation among banks, fintechs, telcos, and quasi-banking players. The future of banking isn’t about competition but collaboration, leveraging shared data responsibly to create a ‘wow’ experience for customers. As Rathore highlighted, “Either you’re in the game, or you’re out.” #OpenBanking #Fintech #BankingInnovation #SeamlessBanking #Dubai
