Cloud Computing: Regulatory and Supervisory Approaches - A2ii-IAIS Consultation Call
The report and presentations of this call can be found on this page
Advancements in digital technologies brings both benefits and challenges to the insurance industry, and the financial sector in general. In recent years, cloud computing is increasingly being used in the insurance sector. Insurers are adopting cloud services and technologies to drive innovation and support critical functions such as underwriting and product development among others. Although cloud computing offers new opportunities for the insurance industry, it also introduces significant risks such those related to data security and confidentiality and vulnerability of IT systems to cyber attacks. As the use of cloud computing services and technology continues to grow, additional regulatory requirements or enhanced supervisory practices may be required which makes it important for supervisors to consider the regulatory and supervisory implications of cloud computing.
The next A2ii-IAIS consultation call will take place on Thursday, 28 November where experts will explore the topic of cloud computing and its implication for supervisors.
The call will be held again in three different languages - English, French and Spanish at the following times:
9am (CET) English || 11am (CET) French || 3pm (CET) English || 5pm (CET) Spanish
