Risk and transition in a digital economy

A new digital economy era is ushering in novel risks and transition challenges. Questions of digital ownership, investor protection and cybersecurity are dominating the discussion about threats to consumers and industry. At the same time innovations, cloud computing and distributed ledger technologies are offering ways to protect data and information. As we move into a digital ecosystem underpinned by digital assets and surrounded by still evolving regulatory frameworks, OMFIF’s Digital Monetary Institute convenes a roundtable, exploring the opportunities and risks in the transition to a digital economy, and the role of digital assets, innovation and regulation.

The session discusses operational resilience and considers challenges pertaining to data governance, the framework for digital IDs, the need for greater cybersecurity and the role innovation and technologies, such as the cloud, can play. Key issues regarding regulatory frameworks are also explored.

Learn about new approaches to best practices and contribute first-hand to a conversation addressing how the public sector, cloud service providers, big tech, fintechs, crypto and traditional finance players are tackling transition challenges and shaping the future digital ecosystem.
