Cyber Resilience Board for pan-European Financial Infrastructures

Fabio Panetta, of the European Central Bank (ECB), has spoken about the Euro Cyber Resilience Board for pan-European Financial Infrastructures (ECRB) and why it is an important entity in the fight against cyber threat actors.  He highlighted three key areas:

  • information sharing, the ECRB’s Cyber Information and Intelligence Sharing Initiative (CIISI-EU) allows members to exchange information about cyber threats and mitigation in a secure and trusted group environment;
  • establishment of a crisis coordination protocol that facilitates cooperation and coordination, allowing members to exchange and respond to major cyber threats and incidents; and
  • training and awareness, the ECRB conducts joint assessments and training sessions to increase common knowledge and understanding.

Panetta concludes: “Existing threats are becoming more dangerous and new threats are on the horizon. We therefore need to adapt our operational and cyber resilience frameworks constantly at the individual level as well as collectively through strict regulation, enforcement and prosecution. Future cooperation between public and private institutions will also be crucial. The ECRB can make a decisive contribution to this effort in relation to the financial system”.

MAS MD highlights three new drivers of asset markets

In  a speech at the IMAS-Bloomberg Investment Conference, Ravi Menon picked out three key uncertainties that will drive financial market returns and risks

  • short term, inflation: “the key driver of risk and return is the trajectory of interest rates – which in turn depends on the inflation outlook and monetary policy response”.
  • medium term, geo-economic fragmentation: “no country will emerge unscathed with rising geoeconomic fragmentation, with emerging market economies set to bear the brunt of reduced trade and capital mobility”
  • Long term, climate change: “Perhaps the most significant financial risk for investors over the long term is climate change”.
