Cybersecurity is more important than ever as digital threats continue to rise. Did you know that 43% of cyber-attacks target small businesses and that in practice, almost 50% of small businesses attacked are at risk of losing all their data? At the European Banking Federation, we're committed to supporting #cybersecurity all year long, not just in October. This month, we join forces with Europol and European Union Agency for Cybersecurity (ENISA) to remind everyone: Cybersecurity is everyone's business. 💻🔒 #CyberSecMonth #CyberAwareness #OnlineSafety

October is Cybersecurity Awareness Month! This October, we’re raising awareness about phishing attacks. Did you know that 90% of data breaches start with a phishing email? Bank phishing emails can be tricky, as they often resemble legitimate correspondence from actual banks. Exercise caution when handling bank-related emails. If in doubt, contact your bank directly. Here are a few ways to spot phishing attempts: ⚠️ Look for suspicious email addresses. ⚠️ Beware of urgent or threatening language. ⚠️ Don’t click on unfamiliar links or attachments. Let’s keep our online communities safe together. 🛡️ #CyberSecMonth #PhishingAwareness #StaySafeOnline

The latest, 4th consecutive report from the C-level ESG Risk Roundtable – the result of joint efforts by the Climate Physical Risk Workstream (WS) members, facilitated by Groupe Crédit Agricole and Societe Generale as workstream leaders – has been launched! The report's objective is to gather current practices and common challenges encountered, with the goal of identifying possible “quick wins” to overcome these challenges. It also addresses issues related to data sourcing, data inconsistencies, scenario selection, and the time horizons used. Other topics explored in the report include challenges related to asset localization, value chain considerations, and the role of insurance in the risk identification process. To learn more about climate physical risk management, the challenges identified, and the suggested approaches to overcoming them, please refer to the full version of the report. 🖇️ Discover the full report here: https://lnkd.in/eeq7xNtr The official launch of the report brought together leading figures from the banking and insurance industries to present its key findings. The webinar, which took place last Thursday, featured Noemie Baques (Societe Generale), Nicolas Jeanmart (Insurance Europe), Irene Monasterolo (Utrecht University), Małgorzata Osiewicz (European Central Bank), and Mikaël Prébet (Groupe Crédit Agricole), under the moderation of Matilde Quarin (European Banking Federation).

How prepared are banks to meet the upcoming regulatory deadlines for introducing instant payments? Does the speed of instant payments increase the risk of fraud? What are the mandatory anti-fraud provisions beyond payment services for industries like telecoms, social networks, and digital platforms? Against this backdrop, we hosted the latest webinar in the “Banking Essential Series” with Martín Azcue López (Bizum), Gijs Boudewijn (Betaalvereniging Nederland (Dutch Payments Association), Ivan Burillo (Santander), and Barbara Pelliccione (ABI - Italian Banking Association), moderated by Sophia Furber from S&P Global Market Intelligence, with welcoming remarks from Christophe Bonte (European Banking Federation). Key takeaways: ➡︎ Instant Payments Becoming Standard: Instant payments will soon be the new norm, driven by upcoming EU regulations requiring payment service providers to offer instant credit transfers at no higher cost than regular ones. ➡︎ Challenges Ahead: Banks need to adapt their systems, manage liquidity, and introduce new fraud prevention measures. The introduction of verification services and daily sanctions screening adds further complexity. ➡︎ Opportunities: Instant payments will foster cross-border solutions, encourage new collaborations between banks and fintechs, and drive innovation in payment systems. ➡︎ Market Readiness: While some countries, like Spain and the Netherlands, are leading the way, others face a race to meet the tight deadlines. ➡︎ Fraud Concerns: Although real-time payments may heighten fraud risks, advanced fraud detection measures and cooperation with tech players will help mitigate these risks. The regulation is set to be a game-changer for European payments, offering speed, security, and new business opportunities. 🖇️ Tune in to the video recording at the link below! https://shorturl.at/lRVEI #InstantPayments #BankingEssentialsSeries
