Operational Resilience in Finance Summit 2025

Welcome to the Operational Resilience in Finance Summit 2025 The Operational Resilience in Finance Summit is a premier international gathering of senior leaders, regulators, and innovators strengthening the future of financial system stability. Over two intensive days, we will explore the strategic, regulatory, and technological dimensions of operational resilience in an era of heightened disruption and digital complexity.

Conference Introduction

Welcome to the Operational Resilience in Finance Summit 2025 Join us in Barcelona this November to connect with global peers, share insights, and shape resilience strategies across financial services — from regulatory frameworks to cyber defenses and systemic risk response.

6 Key Themes for the Operational Resilience in Finance Summit

  1. Regulatory Alignment & Global Standards: Navigating DORA, Basel III, and cross-jurisdictional resilience mandates.
  2. Cyber & Technology Risk: Safeguarding critical infrastructure, mitigating cyber threats, and managing digital dependencies.
  3. Third-Party & Supply Chain Resilience: Oversight of cloud, fintech, and outsourced service providers. 
  4. Business Continuity & Crisis Response: Scenario testing, disruption readiness, and post-incident recovery strategies.
  5. Digital Transformation & Automation: Embedding resilience into systems, data flows, and AI-driven operations. 
  6. Systemic Interconnectedness & Financial Stability: Operational risk as a driver of systemic exposure and regulatory scrutiny.
