Unified Fintech Forum Develops Code for Technology Vendors to Enhance Cybersecurity
The Unified Fintech Forum (UFF), a self-regulatory organization recognized by the RBI, is developing a framework and Code of Conduct for technology service providers and RegTech firms. This initiative aims to enhance cybersecurity preparedness, governance, and operational resilience amid rising cyber threats affecting financial institutions. Third-party vendors registering with UFF and adhering to the code may receive preference from fintechs and regulated entities, potentially establishing a de facto accreditation system to improve vendor selection standards.
