MAS, ABS hold exercise to bolster finance sector's operational resilience

Participants simulated various scenarios like cyberattacks to test their response capabilities.

The Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) and the Association of Banks in Singapore jointly held its seventh business continuity exercise with financial institutions to bolster crisis management and operational resilience within the financial sector.

It involved 20 financial institutions across the banking, payments, securities, and insurance sectors. Participants simulated various scenarios, including IT outages, cyberattacks, and operational disruptions, to test their response, recovery capabilities, and crisis communication strategies.

Vincent Loy, assistant managing director (Technology Group) at MAS, emphasised the importance of strengthening the financial sector's ability to manage risks and recover quickly to maintain public confidence in the delivery of financial services.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

You're the reader we write for. You're also the person our partners want to reach.

If that sentence describes you — a founder, a C-suite, someone whose attention companies pay good money for — then you already understand why SBR works. We've spent twenty years earning the trust of readers exactly like you. Which is exactly what makes this an interesting place for your company to show up, too.

The ways it can show up are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The right fit depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.

If your company has something this audience should know about, we'd like to hear what you're working on.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.
