Welcome to this episode focused on major regulatory and institutional updates impacting global finance and cybersecurity.

We discuss monetary policy shifts such as Banco de la República’s 100 basis point rate hike to 10.25%, and coordinated actions by the Central Bank of Colombia to stabilize inflation. The Bank of Japan’s summary of its January monetary policy meeting reveals ongoing tightening measures.

In regulatory compliance, the Reserve Bank of India has imposed penalties on Jilla Sahkari Bank Limited for lapses in Know Your Customer risk categorisation reviews.

On the cybersecurity front, important updates include ASUS removing a vulnerable feature to address a local privilege escalation flaw (CVE-2025-13348), HP's release of ThinPro 8.1 SP9 with critical patches, Samsung’s mobile security updates, plus a critical code execution vulnerability found in n8n workflow software. Additionally, Kumamoto Prefecture in Japan has established a cybersecurity collaboration agreement with local authorities.
