Our services ensure the end client has access to the source code and related materials needed to continue to maintain or modify the software if necessary.
2) Business Continuity: In the event of a software vendor’s failure, bankruptcy or other unforeseen circumstances, our software escrow and SaaS continuity escrow solutions enable fintech companies to continue their operations, with the client being able to access the escrowed source code, documentation and other materials for business continuity.
3) Trust and Confidence: Having a software escrow agreement in place ensures trust and confidence between the fintech company and its clients, providing assurance that measures are in place to safeguard their software investment.
The exhibit generated a lot of interest among visitors, with many companies expressing interest in learning more about the benefits of Escrow London’s software escrow and SaaS continuity escrow solutions. The UK team were on hand to provide information and answer questions, as well as helping raise awareness of how to comply with new PRA and Bank of England regulations around critical third party suppliers, something that is a hot topic among financial institutions today.
“Exhibiting at Fintech Week London 2023 was a great experience that exceeded our expectations,” said Evan Lever, CEO and Founder of Escrow London.“We were excited to showcase our innovative software escrow and SaaS continuity escrow solutions to financial and fintech professionals, as well as being able to share our expert knowledge on how financial institutions can comply to the ever growing list of regulations around using critical third-party suppliers. Our teams dedication, coupled with the great response from attendees, solidified our belief that Escrow London’s solutions are at the forefront of helping the financial industry protect their IT investments and maintain their software in the event of software supply-chain disruption.”
As well as exhibiting at the show, Evan Lever, also presented to attendees on 19th June. His keynote titled, “PRA’s Outsourcing and Third-Party Risk Management Regulations Compliance,” was greatly received and generated a lot of interesting discussion.
During his talk, Evan delved into the complexity of ensuring continuity if a critical software vendor fails. A detailed case study was also shared, highlighting the strategy a UK bank has implemented to comply with the PRA regulations. The adoption by financial institutions of fintech solutions has greatly increased the risk of third-party reliance. Financial institutions are therefore required by regulation to ensure that if the fintech company fails, they have a tested exit strategy.
