For organizations under the supervision of the Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas (BSP), the Insurance Commission (IC), or the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), operational resilience is not optional — it’s an obligation. Whether you’re in finance, fintech, lending, health maintenance, investment services, or other regulated sectors, maintaining uninterrupted service isn’t just about protecting business interests — it’s about safeguarding trust, financial stability, and regulatory credibility.

Guidelines like those defined in the Manual of Regulation for Banks (MORB) and Non-Bank Financial  Institutions (MORNBFI) on Business Continuity Management and the SEC’s disclosure and governance requirements reflect growing expectations: regulated entities must anticipate disruptions, minimize impact, and demonstrate structured recovery capabilities. But even with policies in place, the question remains — how ready is your organization in practice?

Resilience Gaps Are No Longer Private Risks — They’re Public Liabilities

In today’s environment, disruptions don’t just test systems — they test leadership and public accountability.

A service outage in a financial institution could shake investor and depositor confidence
A breach in a fintech firm could lead to regulatory sanctions and irreparable reputational harm
A failure to respond to a disaster could trigger compliance audits

Resilience failures among regulated firms are high stakes. And regulators may expect more than just plans — they may expect proof of capability.

The First Step: Know Where You Stand

To help regulated firms identify potential gaps before they are exposed by a crisis — or flagged in a regulatory review — we created a short but meaningful assessment:
The Business Resilience Readiness Survey

By completing the survey, you will:

Assess your current state of readiness across governance, operations, technology, and finance areas
Pinpoint areas where policies exist but execution may fall short
Receive a customized Resilience Readiness Scorecard
Benchmark your resilience maturity against other regulated respondents (all data anonymized)

What You'll Get in Your Scorecard

1. Your Organization’s Overall Resilience Readiness Rating – Are you “At Risk”, “Developing Resilience”, “Resilience Capable”, or a “Resilience Leader”?
 

2. What This Means for You – Translating scores into practical insights on where regulatory and operational vulnerabilities may exist.
 

3. Your Immediate Next Steps – Prioritized, actionable guidance to align your resilience maturity with regulatory expectation.

This survey takes only 7–10 minutes.
(All responses are confidential. No company names or personal data will be disclosed in benchmarking.)

Why This Matters
In regulated environments, disruption isn’t just a business risk — it’s a compliance issue. Knowing how ready you truly are is your first line of defense. With the Resilience Readiness Scorecard, you’ll gain clarity, context, and a roadmap to strengthen your resilience posture — before an audit, outage, or incident forces it into focus.
