Global Regulation: UK’s Operational Resilience
As a result of the progressing reliance on third-party technology, the Bank of England’s Prudential Regulation Authority (PRA) issued a new Supervisory Statement (SS2/21). A year after it was issued the second statement, Operational Resilience: Impact Tolerances for Important Business (SS1/21), became effective on March 31, 2022. Under SS1/21, companies and firms in the UK now have a standard continuity plan. This requires them to build a plan on risks connected to critical business services. By doing so, the regulation aims for a better, robust and effective third-party management that protects both the institution and its clients.
