Wayne Scott writes about risk, regulation and resilience in the financial sector, with a focus on how technology and complex supply chains are reshaping operational risk. His work explores how financial institutions are exposed not only to the major providers they contract with directly, but also to the less visible firms that sit deeper in their vendor ecosystems.

His analysis highlights emerging fourth-party risks, the limitations of current oversight approaches, and the steps firms should consider to strengthen their resilience in a landscape increasingly dominated by large technology and cloud providers.
