The debate surrounding the practicality of cloud computing within financial institutions rages on. The benefits in terms of outsourcing responsibilities to the experts are plain for most to see. However, the uncertainties surrounding security, data management and basic legal and regulatory liabilities do not seem to go away.

Some organisations are confident enough to assign a large part of their systems to the cloud, whilst other firms are either more conservative in their approach or are even completely
against this strategy in its entirety. Which is the best strategy for your institution and what is the regulator’s stance?

The session will be conducted through a panel of industry experts who will share their views on these topics and steer this session. The panel includes:

• Gabriel Venance Sallah, Senior IT Technologist, Standard Chartered Bank
• Grant Slender, Head of Technology Strategy, Architecture & Risk, Bank of Queensland
• Bradden Wondra, CTO, HP Enterprise Services, Asia Pacific & Japan
• Aldo Joson, Senior Research Analyst, The Asian Banker

• Identifying security concerns and how best to address them
• How will regulatory demands be met?
• Selecting which cloud model is best for your organisation
• How will service level agreements be established and managed?
