Eppo Heemstra, I am very happy to join the board of ibanXS. In my previous role as Managing Director Sales Transaction Banking with ABN AMRO, it became clear to me that PSD2 and Open Banking are the basis of the future financial infrastructure in Europe. Working with the team of ibanXS gives the opportunity to collaborate with true professionals to shape that future from Open Banking towards Open Finance.

In his role as CRFO, he will bring ibanXS’ risk management function and the comprehensive risk management framework, including transaction monitoring, to the highest level and will achieve the long and short term (financial) objectives of ibanXS. I am very happy with his arrival.
