National Financial Situation Room

A forum of decision makers headed by the Minister of Finance, designed to be assembled in times of major crisis to steer the financial sector

In a time of crisis in the financial system, originated by a cyber-attack, war situation or other threats materializing, arise the need for a "war room" of a sort. This forum, comprised of decision-makers, will be getting all the relevant information and instructing the relevant factors on how to address the situation.

​

We laid the groundwork for the gathering of this forum and in February 2019 held a comprehensive exercise simulating such incident. The exercise was participated by all ranking members of the government financial bodies and representative CEO's of a leading bank, investment and insurance companies.
