DORA: The digital operational resilience for the financial sector

Shaping Together a Resilient Digital Future

Welcome to DORA: the Digital Operational Resilience Act, designed to empower the financial sector with comprehensive guidelines and regulations to safeguard operations in the digital age.

Why DORA Matters for the Financial Sector?

DORA is a groundbreaking legislation designed to strengthen the operational resilience of financial institutions in the face of increasing digital risks. In an era where technology plays a crucial role in financial services, DORA is a forward-thinking framework that addresses operational risks, cyber threats, and disruptive incidents ensuring that your organization remains resilient and responsive to emerging menaces.

Who is affected by the new DORA regulation?

DORA addresses not only traditional financial operators, but also new players such as crypto-asset service companies, crowdfunding service providers, as well as ICT service providers. The regulation introduces a dedicated supervisory body for ICT service providers, specific authorisation/certification and reporting requirements.

We have analysed the regulation in detail, outlining the individual obligations required from financial entities to come up with a comprehensive approach on:

  • The frequency of the required activity
  • The internal functions involved (and the maturity of the expected involvement, in a RACI logic)

Our expertise

  • Knowledge of industry regulations and business processes/models to help financial entities implement the changes required by DORA
  • Deep experience on regulatory compliance projects to cope with heavy regulatory content, tight timelines and lack of technical standards
