Abstract	The financial technology landscape is evolving at a rapid pace, driven by increasing consumer demand for better control over personal financial data and more seamless financial experiences. In response, a standardized API has been created by the Financial Data Exchange (FDX) consortium to enable safe, user-permitted data exchange between financial institutions and outside sources. Financial aggregators—organizations that aggregate user data from several financial sources—are coming under increasing pressure to switch from antiquated methods like screen scraping and proprietary APIs to infrastructures that comply with FDX. The migration process is thoroughly examined in this article, which also outlines the operational, strategic, legal, and technical difficulties that aggregators confront. We also delve into the transformative opportunities FDX presents, particularly in strengthening security and privacy protocols. With a detailed analysis of security architectures, consent frameworks, and regulatory alignments, this paper aims to guide stakeholders through the complex yet promising journey toward FDX adoption.
