For a decade, retail banking strategy pointed in one direction: get the customer into the app. The app was the moat, the data, the cross-sell surface and the brand. Everything else — SMS, email, the call centre — was legacy plumbing kept alive out of obligation. Then the plumbing got an upgrade.

"Data sovereignty" has become one of the most used phrases in European fintech this year. It shows up in bank strategy decks, in regulators' speeches and in almost every LinkedIn post about Wero or the digital euro.

The argument sounds convincing: PSD2 forced every bank in the EU to open an interface to third parties, so why would a treasurer still use a file-based protocol designed in Germany in the mid-2000s? Yet in 2026, EBICS is not shrinking. It has just gone through a major version upgrade, and German banks are now counting down to a format deadline on 15 November 2026. Both standards are alive because they solve different problems.
