APIs are transforming the treasury, payments, and bank connectivity landscape by providing new opportunities for companies to tap into up-to-date information in a dynamic way.

Although many companies are still at an early stage of realizing the benefits of APIs,  there are a number of promising use cases that have already materialized.
