Operational Resilience by Design in the Age of DORA Regulation.
Open finance only thrives when trust holds, especially as PSD3/PSR, FIDA, and instant payments broaden interconnections. This keynote sets out a "resilience-by-design" playbook aligned to DORA’s five pillars. Supervisory expectations are, in fact, design decisions to reduce systemic risk and speed recovery, so innovation becomes robust by default, not fragile by design.
