The Digital Economy is transforming the strategies of the financial industry, forcing it to change its traditional business model for solutions that expand the functionality and scope of the services they offer to their clients. Thanks to emerging tools such as APIs, processes are being simplified and automated, aiming to provide a simple, easy and intuitive user experience.
APIs are a set of computer functions and protocols that allow developers to connect technological applications and processes with each other in an agile, secure, and scalable way, without the need to generate new programming codes.
There are two types of APIs: Open and Commercial. Open APIs are those that have a shared methodology and can be approved through regulatory entities and financial entities around the world. For their part, Commercial APIs use a particular interconnection between two or more entities with private-level characteristics.
Open Trust & Funds is the Service API Platform GESTOR Provides to its Clients.
Currently, companies in the financial sector are betting on the development of Open APIs, digitally transforming their business model and facilitating the offer of new services, as solution providers to other applications and companies.
