    About this initiative

    Strategic Decision_Red

     

     

    Cyber risk remains one of the most significant risks and strategic priorities for the financial services industry. In 2023/24, we published Faster & Safer: Priorities for Cyber Risk Management, identifying key priorities for the discipline, including cyber risk management maturity, data sharing, metrics and benchmarking, roles and responsibilities, cyber risk quantification and regulatory preparedness. 

    Since then, the landscape evolved significantly. Rapid technological change, growing interconnectivity, geopolitical uncertainty and frontier AI are reshaping cyber risk today.

    Our proposed Cyber Thought Leadership study asks: What is the strategic role of cyber risk management in an AI-enabled, highly interconnected and increasingly autonomous world?

    The findings of the study will help shape ORX's future cyber research and services.

    Why now?

    Delivered activities

    We have engaged members in discussions on the rapidly changing cyber risk landscape and its implications for financial institutions. These conversations have explored key emerging themes, including AI and agentic systems, digital ecosystem concentration, third-party dependencies and cyber resilience, alongside the growing connections between cyber, technology, AI and data risk. They have also highlighted the increasing strategic importance of cyber resilience alongside prevention, and the need to better connect cyber risk with financial and business outcomes.

    Current and upcoming activities

    Building on these discussions, we are examining how cyber risk management needs to evolve in response to technological change, geopolitical uncertainty and increasingly complex digital ecosystems. The study will explore the future scope and positioning of cyber risk, its relationship with technology, AI, data and wider non-financial risk disciplines, and how cyber risk management can remain effective and strategically relevant as the risk landscape continues to evolve.
