PSD2 Authentication…the rumours, facts, challenges and solutions

The shadow of PSD2, due to come into force in January 2018, is now looming large over the banking and payments industry. The associated Regulatory Technical Standards (RTS), delegated to the European Banking Authority, will mandate compliance with new stringent ‘strong customer authentication’ rules, which may change the way consumers make online payments. Join us at this event on PSD2 authentication, aimed at shedding much-needed light on the PSD2 and the RTS rules. Intercede and techUK have come together to offer a day of presentations, conversation and networking opportunities.
