Ural Forum «Cybersecurity in Finance» 2027

The Ural Forum "Cybersecurity in Finance" 2027 is held by the Bank of Russia on 17–19 February 2027 at the Yekaterinburg-Expo congress centre. According to the forum's site, in 2027 it will share a venue with Finopolis, the central bank's fintech forum, making it a combined event for cybersecurity, antifraud and financial innovation. (Timezone: Asia/Yekaterinburg, UTC+5; listed as UTC because that zone is not in the allowed list.)

Who should attend: security and antifraud teams of Russian banks and payment companies, NSPK/SBP participants, compliance and AML officers and solution vendors.

Why it matters: the Bank of Russia uses this forum to explain new rules on fraud monitoring, drop accounts and P2P transfer controls — areas that directly affect card and P2P processing in Russia.
