Choose the area that fits your requirements

Operational Resilience Framework

Financial institutions face the challenge of maintaining critical business functions under all circumstances. The Basel Committee Principles, DORA, and national supervisors like BaFin require robust Operational Resilience Frameworks with clearly defined impact tolerances, systematic resilience testing, and end-to-end governance. We support banks, insurers, and financial services firms in building holistic resilience frameworks that go beyond mere compliance and create genuine operational resilience.

Third-Party Risk Management

Growing reliance on external ICT providers, cloud vendors, and technology partners exposes financial institutions to significant third-party risk. Since January 2025, DORA mandates systematic Third-Party Risk Management including information registers, due diligence assessments, and ongoing monitoring. We build tailored TPRM frameworks that align regulatory obligations with strategic vendor management — from risk classification and contract governance to exit strategies for critical service providers.
