The Core Banking Revolution Is Here

Composable Banking is a technology and transformation approach that addresses the simple fact that change is constant. To ensure that banks and FI’s can innovate swiftly and maintain the greatest level of control over their product roadmap, they must adopt a modular or “swappable” architecture.

M-A-C-H: The Characteristics of a Composable Approach

Microservices
API First

API-first is a product-centric approach to developing APIs. It views the role of APIs as discrete products, rather than integrations subsumed within other systems. All functionality of your system is exposed through API’s which must be configured to allow for significant, flexibility, interoperability and reusability.

Headless Architecture

The Case for Composability

Composable banking is a solution approach that prioritizes integration readiness and flexibility, allowing organizations to dramatically improve the speed at which a company can onboard a new partner or design, build, test and deploy a new product.  This is relevant for value-driven business transformations aiming to build differentiating customer experiences while setting up a future-proof, flexible and cost-effective IT landscape.

Building the Business Case

Take control of your product roadmap

Composable banking enables a broader universe of build, buy or partner decisions in order to deliver new products and experiences to customers.

Reduce transformation risk

Because components are swappable and modular, banks and FI’s are not locked in to a single vendor or ‘big bang’ release cycles.

Adopt a data driven approach

Cloud native banking cores have a much higher level of data available to be queried. Build an analytics and insights practice to understanding customer behaviour.

Accelerate timelines to realize ROI

With a composable approach, speed matters. Firms can control their speed to market by delivering products in an iterative and incremental approach.

Cost reduction and re-use

APIs are rationalized and bundled for re-use across the enterprise, reducing API footprint, and calls to the core through a leaner application stack.

What is composable banking?

Composable Banking is a technology and transformation approach that addresses the simple fact that change is constant. To ensure that banks and FI’s can innovate swiftly and maintain the greatest level of control over their product roadmap, they must adopt a modular or “swappable” architecture. The characteristics that define Composable banking follow the MACH principles: Microservices, API First, Cloud Native, Headless

What is the difference between Composable Banking and Open Banking

There are many similar themes between Composable Banking and Open Banking but composable banking is primarily a technology architecture approach and open banking is an industry trend relating to the enablement of how consumer bank data is shared securely banking ecosystem stakeholders.  A composable banking approach is a significant change to how the underlying systems that power banking experience are managed by banks and FI’s.  There are some areas of overlap between Composable Banking and Open Banking – specifically, API’s are key enabler of how new and different banking experiences are delivered to customers.
