#IADS

What is the Interbank Account Data Sharing (IADS) ?

The IADS programme is formulated by the Hong Kong Monetary Authority and launched with the support of the banking industry. The IADS programme has established the rules and standards facilitating interbank customer-consented data sharing. This allows customers to securely and efficiently share their bank account data from one participating bank (Data Providing Bank) to other participating banks (Data Consuming Bank), subject to customer consent. Account data sharing could help digitalise banking operations, strengthen risk management of banks, and enhance customer experience.

About Consent

Deposit account data of corporate and small and medium-sized enterprises, limited to account availability, account status, account balances and transaction records

Customer consent journey overview:

 

1. Customer initiates the consent procedures through the Data Consuming Bank’s platform (e.g. internet banking platform )

2. The platform above will redirect the customer to the internet banking platform of the selected Data Providing Bank

3. The customer logs in to internet banking platform of the Data Providing Bank and then reviews and confirms the consent details

4. If the customer wishes to grant the consent to multiple Data Providing Banks, repeat the above three steps for each selected Data Providing Bank

Customers can view the current status of their consents and revoke their consents as required, through the internet banking platform of their Data Providing Banks at any time. Since the internet banking platform design and process flow may vary with banks, please contact the respective banks for details
