This course provides a comprehensive overview of recent and upcoming EU regulations that are reshaping compliance, risk management, and sustainability practices across the financial sector. It begins with the ESG regulatory framework, including CSRD, CS3D, SFDR, the EU Taxonomy, and MiFID II ESG rules, highlighting disclosure obligations, double materiality, and sustainable finance standards. The course then examines the Digital Operational Resilience Act (DORA), detailing its five key pillars of ICT and cyber risk management, incident reporting, resilience testing, and third-party oversight. Finally, it explores the expanding EU regulatory landscape, including the AI Act, the Cyber Resilience Act (CRA), the Digital Services Act (DSA), and NIS2, focusing on how they interact with existing compliance frameworks. Participants will gain practical insights into how these regulations collectively advance transparency, sustainability, and digital resilience in financial markets.
