He said it was yet another strong indicator that the Leadway  brand was built on unmatched and entrenched risk management systems buoyed by its robust enterprise information technology, ensuring that the firm was on top of the game ahead of the prevailing severe cyber crimes. 

“We understand the criticality of today’s cyber security realities, so we must invest in providing word-class cyber security architecture, reengineer and optimise our robust risk management processes to protect critical data on our customers, financial operations, medical information, and employee details.”

“We are delighted to have this re- certification, and I am confident that having achieved this milestone, we will continue to maintain and sustain continuous system improvement and give room for external checks and balances for proper efficacy and future scrutiny in line with the global standard,” he added.
