Nicolas Täuber is a Senior Manager at KPMG and advises banks, insurance companies and IT service providers on operational resilience, with a focus on information security, ICT risk management and third-party risk management (TPRM). He leads international transformation and resilience programmes for leading financial institutions in Europe and supports clients in implementing regulatory requirements and liaising with supervisory authorities. As a regular speaker at specialist conferences and in industry working groups, he publishes articles on operational resilience and current regulatory developments and their impact on the market.
Resilience goes beyond regulatory compliance. Regulatory frameworks can set necessary guidelines, but effective resilience only emerges when it is understood as a value in its own right. Effective governance, robust risk management processes and modern technologies form the foundation for effectively addressing new threats and challenges, be they cyber-attacks, geopolitical crises, dependencies on third parties or the impact of new technologies. As a strategic priority, resilience not only protects financial services providers and their customers, but also strengthens the stability of the European financial market.
