Technology, Innovation and Systemic Risk

As established and emerging technologies continue to reshape financial services at a rapid pace, inherently new potential systemic risks are emerging. In response, the Forum’s Future of Financial and Monetary Systems platform is launching a project that will bring together private and public sector leaders to: 1. Further identify the developing short and long-term risks stemming from increased utilization of technologies in financial services, 2. Deconstruct identified risks and technology-related complexities such that stakeholders have the necessary insights from which to build risk mitigation strategies, 3. Explore how innovation and technologies themselves can be leveraged in the risk mitigation process.
