Advancing Cybersecurity and Financial Inclusion

Cyber threats and incidents have heightened since the start of the pandemic, posing risks to the safety and stability of the financial system. Remote working and increased use of financial services over digital channels have opened more points of banking system access to malicious actors. These increasingly sophisticated attackers target large and small institutions, rich and poor countries, and operate without borders. If we want to harness technology to lift people up, we need to handle these threats. This is essential for financial inclusion, an area where digital transformation creates many opportunities. It is also crucial for empowering women. The panel will discuss cybersecurity and how financial institutions can improve their resilience to cyber threats and incidents. It will also discuss the role policy makers, supervisors and regulators can play.
