This Exposure Draft sets out the Bank’s guidance on the development and publication of Open Application Programming Interface (Open API) for open data by financial institutions.

The Exposure Draft encourages financial institutions to adopt the Open Data API Specifications on selected product information (credit card, SME loans and motor insurance product) developed by the Open API Implementation Groups. The Open Data API Specifications are available at https://github.com/BankNegaraMY.

The Bank invites written feedback on the Exposure Draft, particularly on the specific questions raised throughout the document.  Responses may include suggestions on areas to be clarified or alternatives that the Bank should consider. The feedback should be supported with clear reasons, including accompanying evidence or illustrations where appropriate to facilitate an effective consultation process. Feedback on the Open Data API Specifications could also be provided via the GitHub link above.

Responses must be submitted to the Bank by 28 September 2018.
