Cloud in the Banking Sector

  • Date: Wednesday, 22nd March, 2017
  • Time: 10am - 1pm
  • Location: Hogan Lovells International LLP, Atlantic House, Holborn Viaduct, EC1
  • Note: This is an invitation only event

In July 2016 the FCA published its well received “Guidance for firms outsourcing to the ‘cloud’ and other third party IT services” stating that there is "no fundamental reason why cloud services (including public cloud services) cannot be implemented, with appropriate consideration, in a manner that complies with our rules". Such a move is in keeping with the regulator's efforts to promote innovation and competition across the sector.

We invite you to join us for this unique half day event in which our expert speakers will explore the business drivers and requirements for the regulated Banking sector to expand its use of cloud services to drive business efficiencies and modernise operations. 

The discussion will focus on issues that need to be addressed by FIs in order to meet regulatory requirements, and in turn help suppliers to the banking industry to understand and respond to the implications for delivery of services.
