Operational Resilience Forum

FinTech North

Operational Resilience Forum 23/02/2023 9:00

In partnership with Manchester-based digital banking platform AccessPay and information assurance firm, NCC Group, we are delighted to present the FinTech North Operational Resilience Forum.

In a sector environment where trust is everything, can FinTechs and FS providers afford to overlook their operational resilience? As FinTechs grow and scale, what are the risks? What technology is available to support this growth and what role does regulation have to play?

In what is a tricky time for funding, FinTechs that are compliant and regulated have an advantage when raising. We think the time is right to return to Operational Resilience as a topic, so as to support Northern FinTechs in their growth journey and ask pertinent questions of expert speakers and our fantastic FinTech community.

Co-sponsors of the event, AccessPay, will talk about the pillars of Embedded Corporate Banking and how to remove the people-risk from one of the most important processes in your business. NCC Group, second co-sponsors of the event, will look to the regulatory horizon at incoming DORA & SS21 regimes, whilst providing FinTech organisations with an expert overview of the risks associated with supplier failure, service deterioration and concentration risk.

The event will focus on themes such as; risk, resilience, cyber-security, compliance, trust and security.
