ISO standards are essential for the banking and finance sector, as they provide a common framework for the exchange of information, transactions and services, covering aspects such as payment cards, securities, messaging, identification, and risk management. By adopting these standards, financial institutions can enhance their operational integrity, promote transparency, and support regulatory compliance and consumer protection.
