Circular C668: Workshop about the preparation of the register of information under the Digital Operational Resilience Act

The Cyprus Securities and Exchange Commission (the “CySEC”) on December 10th, 2024, issued Circular C668, regarding the workshop on preparing the register of information under the Digital Operational Resilience Act (the “Circular”).

Following the issuance of the Circular, CySEC wishes to inform Financial Entities* of an upcoming workshop initiated by the European Supervisory Authorities (ESAs) to provide guidance on how Financial Entities should prepare their registers of information under the Digital Operation Resilience Act (‘DORA’).

With the implementation of DORA on January 17th, 2025, Financial Entities will be required to maintain registers of information regarding their use of ICT third-party providers. CySEC will integrate these submissions into its existing XBRL Portal and encourages entities that have not yet registered on the portal to do so.
