Digital Operational Resilience Act

Handbook for assessment and implementation

This handbook attempts to structure and simplify the requirements in the regulatory text, by offering summaries and actionable advice on how to assess and implement compliance, to support organisations currently working to implement the regulation – Happy reading!
  • This document includes summaries of key points in the European Parliament regulation on digital operational resilience for the financial sector. Any summary will naturally omit some detail and nuance, but we have made our best attempt at staying true to the regulatory text and including what we have identified as the most important points.
  • The requirements have been summarized from the perspective of most financial entities(referred to broadly as ‘organisations’) implementing the regulation. Special requirements concerning ‘microenterprises’, central securities depositories, etc. have not been included.
