Speaking at
Chapter II – ICT Risk Management – of DORA calls for an independent control function responsible for managing and overseeing ICT risk. The definition of control function goes beyond the framework provided by Circular CSSF 18/698 pointing explicitly to the compliance and risk management functions. With flexibility left to investment fund managers, a pertinent question emerges: who should assume the responsibility of managing and overseeing ICT risk? The panel will embrace diverse perspectives and explore the essential DORA requirements and delineate the different operational models implemented by distinct risk managers.
