THE GLOBAL FORCES RESHAPING FINANCIAL MARKETS
In an ever-increasingly connected world, financial markets play a vital role in ensuring the smooth flow of capital across borders and time zones. For market operators, the rise of digital trading systems and new blockchain technology holds promise for always-on accessibility but comes with potential drawbacks, including gaps in oversight, cyberattacks, and navigating complex regulatory environments. What are the global forces influencing financial markets? How can market operators worldwide advance transparency that enables investors to match their portfolios with environmental and social objectives while reinforcing global market trust? A panel of financial market decision makers share their strategic insights.

"This job used to make me miserable because of the anxiety stemmed in the guilt for being in "Attack Mode" all the time until one day, I decided to give in, and fully embrace my inner sociopath and narcissistic tendencies. When I did this, and forgave myself for doing so, I felt both at peace and a new form of inner rage simultaneously, and at this moment, I became dangerous."- James Scott, Senior fellow, ICIT and CCIOS

HACKING OUR DEFENSES
As cyberattacks become more sophisticated and more frequent, the stakes for companies protect their data and people have never been higher. Leaders in global payments and
enterprise technology will share insights on how threats are evolving—and what’s needed to stay prepared. Topics will include growing risks across regions, the role of AI in both attacks and defense, and why security is as much about people and processes as it is about tools. What does it really take to stay resilient in a world where every vulnerability can become a headline? And what bold moves should leaders make now to harden their defenses before the next breach?

BUILDING CYBER RESILIENCE
Cyberattacks on critical infrastructure, such as the Colonial Pipeline, are increasing in frequency and size. Concurrently, infrastructure operators are implementing new technologies that increase efficiencies, but these could also make their assets more vulnerable to cyberattacks. How can the industry embrace digital adoption while managing cyberthreats? What can be done about zero-day exploits—that is, cyberattacks that occur the same day a vulnerability is discovered by a hacker? What preventive strategies might reduce downtime?
