Kati Honkajuuri-Kokkonen is Chief Administration Officer with Euroclear Finland, while Alan Goodrich is Regional Sales Manager for the Benelux, Nordics, Baltics & SEE, with banking system provider ERI.

The EU’s Digital Operational Resilience Act (DORA), currently under implementation at some 20,000 companies across the EU, is just one concrete example of how this field is growing on us as a very practical one.
