A stronger focus on regulation
An operational resilience framework is a far-reaching and complex undertaking, and whilst some firms are already in implementation, a large portion of the sector have yet to start. Operational resilience is no longer a ‘nice to have’, it’s a regulatory requirement in many jurisdictions around the world. Some examples, but not all, are given below:
U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC)
The SEC, Federal Reserve, FDIC, OCC, and FFIEC emphasize operational resilience in the financial sector. Rising regulatory expectations highlight the need for a unified critical event management platform to streamline operational risk, response benchmarks, tracking, and audits. Regulators focus on minimizing outages and ensuring oversight, strengthening business continuity and crisis management across the industry.
The European Union (EU)
The European Union (EU) introduced the Digital Operational Resilience Act (DORA) in 2025 which introduces a unified framework to boost the operational resilience of digital systems in financial institutions. Organizations must ensure ICT systems are resilient, secure, and compliant with strict standards. Compliance demands include documentation of ICT assets, encryption policies, network security, and data transfer protocols, driving significant changes to ensure continuity, availability, and robust data security measures.
United Kingdom (UK)
The United Kingdom (UK), through the Bank of England (BoE), the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA), and the Prudential Regulation Authority (PRA), introduced the Operational Resilience and Business Continuity framework. This framework aims to ensure financial institutions can withstand disruptions, safeguard critical business services, and maintain market stability. It focuses on risk management, recovery planning, and enhancing overall operational robustness across the sector.
Australian Prudential Regulation Authority (APRA)
The Australian Prudential Regulation Authority (APRA) introduced standards to enhance the financial resilience of regulated entities. These standards focus on risk management, crisis preparedness, and operational continuity, ensuring businesses can withstand disruptions and safeguard stakeholders. By mandating robust governance, recovery planning, and stress testing measures, APRA aims to strengthen the stability and reliability of Australia’s financial sector.
Hong Kong Monetary Authority (HKMA)
The Hong Kong Monetary Authority (HKMA) has introduced financial standards to bolster the stability and resilience of the banking sector. Focused on risk management, liquidity, and cybersecurity, these measures ensure institutions can manage disruptions effectively. By promoting robust governance, operational continuity, and anti-money laundering practices, the HKMA aims to uphold investor confidence and maintain Hong Kong’s position as a global financial hub.
Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS)
The Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) has implemented financial standards aimed at strengthening risk management, operational resilience, and cybersecurity within the financial sector. These regulations promote innovation while ensuring stability and safeguarding stakeholders. By encouraging digital transformation and robust governance, MAS supports the growth of fintech and maintains Singapore’s standing as a trusted and competitive global financial center.
Reach the highest level of resilience with BC in the Cloud (BCIC)
As the frequency and severity of incidents increase, financial services institutions need to reach new levels of readiness and become more agile when responding to regulator requests. BCIC was built to ensure financial services organizations can take their BC/DR programs beyond operational resilience to reach the highest standards of readiness.
