Norton Rose Fulbright to Host Webinar on Digital Operational Resilience Act

Join Norton Rose Fulbright’s European regulatory and compliance team in discussing the Digital Operational Resilience Act ("DORA") on Thursday, April 25, 2024, at 9:00 am - 10:00 am E.T. The new piece of European legislation (due to become effective on January 17, 2025) sets out comprehensive requirements for European financial entities regarding management of information and communication technology third-party risks, as well as introducing an Oversight Framework for critical third-party providers of ICT services.

While most of DORA requirements are addressed to European-regulated financial entities, DORA does have meaningful implications for the U.S. and other non-European providers of ICT services that work with European clients. The in-scope ICT services are considered broadly and range from various types of cloud services, through provision of data and data analytics, non-analogue telecom services, up to software licensing, ICT security and risk management, and other related services.

In this short webinar, Norton Rose Fulbright’s European regulatory and compliance team will discuss:

• key DORA requirements relevant to third-party ICT service providers, including rules on contracting and sub-contracting;
• cross-border implications;
• Oversight Framework for critical ICT third-party service providers;
• relevant timelines; and
• practical insights on managing compliance readiness.

Speakers include:

• Hannah Meakin, Partner, London;
• Haney Saadah, Managing Director of Risk Advisory, EMEA, London;
• Sophie Bertin, External Consultant, Brussels;
• Anna Carrier, Legal Consultant, Brussels; and
• James Russell, Partner, London.

The webinar will provide an opportunity for a short Q&A. Register here.
