The standardised Open Banking Application Programme Interfaces (APIs) are being introduced as a result of the Competition and Market Authority’s (CMA) Retail Banking Market Investigation Order 2017.
The CMA is responsible for monitoring and enforcing compliance with this Order, including the performance of the APIs. The Open Banking Implementation Entity will assist the CMA in delivering this function.

The chancellor of the exchequer is the government's chief financial minister and as such is responsible for raising government revenue through taxation or borrowing and for controlling overall government spending.
The chancellor's plans for the economy are delivered to the House of Commons every year in the Budget speech.
The chancellor is the most senior figure at the Treasury, even though the prime minister holds an additional title of 'First Lord of the Treasury'. He normally resides at Number 11 Downing Street.
