European Survey on DORA – 2025 edition
Strengthening digital operational resilience in the financial sector
Now that the application date of DORA has passed, and the regulatory technical standards are finalized and issued in the Official Journal of the European Commission, Deloitte has conducted a survey with the objectives to understand the readiness of financial institutions in complying with the DORA, and the associated implementation challenges that these institutions are facing.
The Digital Operational Resilience Act (DORA) is a key EU regulation that affects financial institutions, with the aim to strengthen digital risk management and protect them from ICT disruptions and cyber threats. In the beginning of 2025, Deloitte conducted an in-depth European survey to assess how 36 financial services entities across 28 countries are transitioning towards compliance with DORA, providing a deeper and broad look at the European market.
