DORA – The New EU Regulation on Digital Operational Resilience
12 June 2026 | 9:30-13:00 CEST
With the Digital Operational Resilience Act (DORA), the European Union has established a harmonised regulatory framework aimed at strengthening the digital resilience of financial institutions – including insurance undertakings – against ICT disruptions, cyberattacks, and other technology-related risks. The regulation has been directly applicable since January 2025.
In the course of implementing DORA, insurance undertakings have been confronted with a wide range of new organisational and technical requirements. Key questions include:
How should digital risks be systematically identified, assessed, and managed within the ICT risk management framework?
What implications does DORA have for existing governance structures and internal control systems within the undertaking?
What requirements apply to the reporting of major ICT-related incidents to supervisory authorities, the systematic execution of digital operational resilience testing, and the management and oversight of ICT third-party service providers?
In addition to outlining the regulatory basis, the session will particularly address the interaction between DORA and existing supervisory frameworks like Solvency II.
The three-hour web session provides participants with a structured overview of the key elements of the DORA Regulation. It explains the regulatory objectives pursued by the European Union, systematically presents the core regulatory requirements, and discusses typical implementation challenges faced by insurance undertakings in practice. The session will also provide insights into initial experiences in Germany with DORA-related audits conducted by BaFin and external auditors.
