Financial District Security Programme (FDSP)

Since the launch of the FDSP in 2009, MAS has collaborated with the Singapore Police Force and Singapore Civil Defence Force to engage the financial industry and develop initiatives to enhance the physical security, crime prevention as well as contingency response and business continuity management within the financial district. Some key initiatives include developing a baseline security standard for financial institutions; establishing a contingency response framework and communication protocols during crisis; and studying the industry's reliance on key service providers and critical infrastructure.
