The resilience and security of third parties is of critical importance to UK Finance members. The risk from cyberattacks remains very real and information security is a key area of due diligence when firms assess their third parties. UK Finance is at the forefront of efforts to improve that assessment process.
Equally however, the more ?mundane? operational failures can cause significant amounts of disruption. As we?ve seen through the Covid-19 crisis, things such as whether a supplier is able to source adequate amounts of laptops or cleaning supplies must now be considered when dealing with third parties. As the use of third parties and outsourcing increases it can be expected that its importance will also increase.
This is reflected in the increasing levels of regulatory scrutiny on outsourcing and third parties, whether that be through the Prudential Regulation Authority (PRA)'s 2019 consultation paper and subsequent policy statement due for publication this year, or the European Commission's Digital Operational Resilience Act (DORA). The latter, among other things, seeks to create an oversight framework to identify and oversee ICT third party service providers deemed "critical" for financial entities.
To support our members as they navigate through this every increasing landscape of operational and regulatory requirements I?m delighted to say that I will be joined by experts from Grant Thornton and TLT Partners for a webinar on this topic on 19 March, where we will explore these issues in more depth.

Free webinar: Regulatory Roadmap II: Cyber and Third-Party Risk, 19 March, 12pm
With the rapid changes in the technology landscape, the understanding of risk and resilience plays a key role in business resilience. On a larger scale it also plays a key role in the strengthening of the financial sector. More recently, with the new normal of home working, organisations have taken on additional cyber and third-party resilience demands with significance on outsourcing and third-party relationships.
This session, in collaboration with knowledge partners Grant Thornton and TLT, will delve into the PRA's latest consultation paper on Outsourcing and Third-Party risk management. It will take into account the increased adoption of cloud and various regulatory guidelines on business relationships with cloud service providers.
