The financial services sector is a decentralized and regionalized industry, with several different sector business components - banking, investments, insurance .Many of the security issues relevant to the sector are most usefully defined at the business component level, since different vulnerabilities and issues exist in each of the components. In other cases efforts need to focus on the security vulnerabilities and issues for a particular financial center or region. The decentralized structure of the industry also means that some key infrastructures - markets and otherwise - can function independently and, in the event of an emergency, can be recovered at different times.
