DORA Regulation - Information for Operators

The Regulation (EU) 2022/2554 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 14 December 2022 on digital operational resilience for the financial sector (Digital Operational Resilience Act - DORA), applicable as of 17 January 2025, establishes a common framework for the management of risks associated with information and communication technologies (ICT).

The regulation and its implementing acts (Implementing Technical Standards and Regulatory Technical Standards) provide for numerous technical-administrative requirements for financial entities and national Authorities.

As far as the insurance sector is concerned, the DORA regulations are applicable to insurance and reinsurance companies subject to Solvency II and insurance intermediaries, reinsurance intermediaries and ancillary insurance intermediaries which do not qualify as microenterprises or as small or medium-sized enterprises (which employ 250 or more persons and have an annual turnover exceeding EUR 50 million or an annual balance sheet total exceeding EUR 43 million).

This page contains the communications to insurance operators issued by IVASS, relevant European and national regulations, and operational documentation for the transmission of mandatory reports under DORA.
