🔒 In today’s fast-paced tech landscape, managing technology risks is crucial for the stability and security of capital markets. Recent incidents underscore the need for strong tech risk management for Capital Market Entities (CMEs). 📉 In April 2024, a DNS outage disrupted a major telecom provider. In July, a software update failure at CrowdStrike caused global outages affecting air travel, banking, and healthcare. A cyber-attack also hit Microsoft Azure, impacting services worldwide. The Guidelines on Technology Risk Management (GTRM) provide essential guidance to help CMEs navigate these challenges effectively. By learning from these events, CMEs can enhance their resilience against tech risks and cyber threats, ensuring market stability. Continuous monitoring and improvement are key to maintaining a robust tech risk management framework. 👉🏼 Read the GTRM Guideline here: https://bit.ly/3WKtSCM

In the first panel session at the IFCTF Masterclass 2024, Jack Babani, Chief Compliance Officer of Hong Leong Bank Berhad spoke to the expert panel on various aspects of the National Risk Assessment (NRA). June Lian, Deputy Director, Financial Intelligence and Enforcement Department, Bank Negara Malaysia, illustrated the threat risk and sectoral risk assessment findings of the NRA, how the evolution of the NRA ensured a more reflective and comprehensive assessment of ML / TF risks and vulnerabilities, and on rendering the NRA findings into actionable insights. Speaking on ease of legislation, she articulated that the development of policies and regulations is an art, which suggests that creating effective policies and regulations requires more than just technical expertise, and implies a level of creativity, intuition, and judgment that goes beyond the mere application of rules and data. Sharifah 'Alia Alhabshi, Assistant General Manager, Supervision Department, Securities Commission Malaysia, elaborated on how perception surveys are used in threat risk assessments for the following reasons: 🔹 for regulators to gain a better understanding of what is happening on ground 🔹to identify potential gaps, which provide key information that can be used to improve on current regulations, and 🔹to increase awareness on inherent risks. Additionally, on the speed of the legislative process, she mentioned that when introducing any new requirements or guidelines, SC always ensures that the guidelines are in line with international standards, engages with the industry — as they are the ones operationalising the requirements — and implements benchmarking studies. Asked on ease of legislation, Muhammad Hanafis Borhan, Director, Supervision Department, Labuan Financial Services Authority, shared that Labuan FSA issues market guidance to facilitate applications of the various requirements of the Labuan entities. These guidelines include detailed explanations or clarification of rules governing the business and conduct of Labuan entities. Read more here: https://lnkd.in/grjCHaAy.

Given the rapidly changing landscape of virtual assets, regulatory compliance is critical to managing risk. In this session, Luno Country Manager Scarlett Chai spoke to the expert panel on various aspects pertaining to virtual assets (VA), including associated risks and assessment methodologies, the role of regulatory compliance in VA risk assessments (VARA), and how organisations can stay current with evolving regulations, among other matters. Abu Lokman Abu Bakar, Head, AML & Non Licensed Entities Supervision, Labuan Financial Services Authority, discussed the key indicators to be integrated into VA Service Providers’ (VASP) Institutional Risk Assessment (IRA), and shared recommendations for VASPs, which include the following best practices: 🔸employing IRA as a crucial component of risk management to identify, assess, and prioritise risks 🔸ensuring that transactions are conducted only with regulated providers 🔸implementing screening processes for wallets/addresses, and 🔸providing regular training and upskilling for risk professionals. According Tuan ACP Foo Wei Min, Assistant Director, Anti-Money Laundering Criminal Investigation Division, Royal Malaysia Police, criminals use VAs in two ways: 🔸as tools to lure victims into investing in Ponzi schemes, and 🔸to launder their criminal proceeds. He highlighted a recent case where an elderly member of the public suffered a staggering loss of over RM10 million after falling victim to a fraudulent cryptocurrency investment scheme: https://lnkd.in/gQXDetmN, and emphasised the need to guard against these scams. Tuan ACP Foo also provided insight into the case statistics on AMLA cryptocurrency investigations from 2020 onwards, and the various analytical tools used to detect risks and monitor ongoing due diligence. He made a salient point on managing VA risks, saying that for LEAs to recover any lost proceeds, time is of the essence, thus expeditious submissions of suspicious transaction reports are key to aiding LEAs in this process. Nurfazrina Daing Abdul Rahman, Deputy General Manager, Securities Commission Malaysia, clarified the objectives of the VARA approach, which were designed to: 🔸enhance the understanding of Malaysia’s virtual asset ML/TF risk exposure 🔸identify key threats and vulnerabilities that may be exploited by criminals using VA and VA service providers (VASP), and 🔸ascertain the adequacy and effectiveness of AML/CFT controls against identified risks to support the development of appropriate strategies. She also highlighted the importance of regulatory compliance in VAs, stating that it is important to engage with the industry, stay updated on trends and developments in the VA space, and consistently monitor regulatory changes.
