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.

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
