Moody’s benoemt Derek Vadala als Global Head of Cyber Risk voor MIS
NEW YORK – (BUSINESS WIRE) – Moody’s Corporation (NYSE: MCO) heeft vandaag aangekondigd dat zij Derek Vadala heeft benoemd tot Global Head of Cyber Risk voor Moody’s Investors Service (MIS).
In deze nieuwe functie zal Derek Vadala de capaciteiten van MIS ontwikkelen voor het evalueren van cyberrisico’s, inclusief een raamwerk voor de overweging van cyberveiligheidsrisico’s bij kredietanalyse. Daarbij zal hij innovatieve onderzoek, analyses en marktbereik op dit gebied een voortrekkersrol laten spelen.
“Net als bij milieurisico’s, sociale en governance-risico’s, zien we cyberrisico als een gebied van toenemende relevantie voor uitgevende instellingen, beleggers, tegenpartijen en overheidsinstanties, omdat dit het operationele en kredietrisico beïnvloedt. Moody’s heeft een uniek perspectief dat kan helpen het inzicht in de markt te vergroten over de manieren waarop krediet en cyberrisico elkaar kruisen, “zei Rob Fauber, President van Moody’s Investors Service.
