Cyber threats are all around us. This is not paranoia, it’s an unfortunate reality: every day brings new hacks, new data leaks, new embarrassment – and new costs, both financial and commercial. Nobody is spared. The attacks target companies large and small, as well as public-sector institutions and individuals. How can organisations protect themselves?

For the second year running, Mazars publishes its responsible banking practices report to assess how banks embed sustainability into their commercial practices.
The COVID-19 situation is requiring a significant amount of collaboration, analysis, problem solving and responsiveness at a domestic and international level given the constantly unfolding situation.
