The new Consumer Data Right Bill has created wide-ranging implications across many different sectors of the Australian economy. KPMG can help you understand and realise the growth opportunities from the introduction of the Consumer Data Right, whilst managing potential risks and implementation requirements with customer centricity at the core.
With the passing of the Consumer Data Right (CDR) Bill in August 2019, an open data economy has been introduced in Australia. This means consumers have greatly improved access to, and control over, their own data. The CDR mandates a greater transparency of service and value that will facilitate better informed consumer choice.
This is the first step in an open data future in which institutions and consumers are all part of a safe, robust and innovative ‘data economy’. Open Banking is the first reform to launch in Australia and other sectors, including energy, telecommunications, superannuation, travel and leisure, will follow.
This changing regulation means there is an opportunity for Australian organisations in these industries to fully realise the opportunities of open data when the CDR is further legislated.
KPMG can assist across all sectors to achieve the following outcomes from open data:
