Thrilled to see Gieom launch DORA 360! At VENDOR iQ, we're proud to partner on this journey, combining our strengths to streamline DORA compliance for financial entities, particularly enabling them to comply with pillar four 'Third Party Risk Management'. This leap forward exemplifies our shared vision for enhancing operational resilience. Kudos to John Santhosh and the the Gieom team! #dora #digitalresilience #operationalresilience #operationalrisk
The new DORA 360 platform from Gieom delivers EU Digital Operational Resilience Act (DORA) compliance – now you can meet the Jan 17 2025 deadline with ease! More info - www.dora360.ai DORA establishes technical standards for the operational resilience of almost all financial entities in the EU, as well as their critical third-party ICT service providers - wherever they are located. So 10s of 1000s of firms! GRC platforms are poorly equipped to meet the operational resilience demands of DORA. Manual processes and spreadsheets are high-risk, slow, unmanageable, and unsustainable. DORA 360, purpose-built to meet the regulatory and operational resilience requirements of the DORA regulation, fast-tracks your compliance journey with: ✅AI-based Regulatory intelligence for fast interpretation of DORA requirements ✅Fully automated, comprehensive gap assessments that identify disparities between your current and target states ✅ Proof that you operate robust, defensible ICT Incident and Response Management processes and remediation plans ✅Time, cost, and effort savings, with artificial intelligence, smart automation, and modern cloud-based technologies (vs. manual processing and legacy GRC) ✅Pre-configured integrations that connect critical business processes, technologies, GRC, system, and data flows for holistic oversight ✅ High-quality, accurate, and digestible management information via intuitive graphical dashboards John Santhosh Vinod Menon Mohammed Shakir Abdullah Bhavana M.

✂ Cutting through the KYD paper trail ✂ The publication of the FCA’s latest Business Plan underlines the continuing regulatory focus on ‘minimising the impact of operational disruption’ and ‘reducing harm from firms failure’. With long, complex distribution chains still prevalent in the UK market how do investment managers manage and monitor their distribution relationships? When reviewing MiFID Product Governance application in 2021 FCA noted that the quality of Due Diligence done by Providers (Asset Managers, Portfolio Managers) varied widely and some providers thought the process added little value. Are there better solutions to the paper trail that make up the current questionnaire based DD processes? Can applying AI across open data bases help Providers understand if distributors have, for example: · Appropriate authorisation and permissions for their business · Director conflicts of interest through shareholdings · Sufficient capital resources for ongoing activities, · Open data breaches or cyber incidents, · A concerning track record of client complaints to FOS With new services coming to market, firms stand to benefit not only from enhanced resilience against supply chain disruptions but also from significantly reduced costs associated with chasing that paper. VENDOR iQ leads this transformation, offering services that enhance operational resilience and substantially lower the costs associated with traditional paper trail "chases". #KYD #operationalresilience #criticalthirdpartyproviders #VendorIQ Kenn Taylor
