Provision of remote services became relevant all over the world, during the 2020 COVID-19 pandemic. Latvian supervisors were also forced to transfer their practice to the digital space as well. COVID-19 pandemic challenges opened a wider range of opportunities for improvement remote practice. Pandemic also highlighted the risks associated with lack of relevant competences. At the global level over the last decade, risks associated with remote counselling summarized in guidelines, providing professionals with examples of best practice. In Latvia, on other hand, such guidelines have not adopted yet.This study developed with the aim to find out the awareness of Latvian supervisors about the risks (cyber security) of using information technology and the protection of personal data in the conditions created by the COVID-19 pandemic.To find out how Latvian supervisors are aware about the risks of using information technology (cyber security) and personal data protection, a survey conducted among Latvian supervisors and organizing an expert panel discussion, scientific strength of the study ensured by data triangulation.The obtained results allowed to conclude that the COVID-19 pandemic highlighted the need for supervision remote practice, at the same time the research data show that the awareness of Latvian supervisors about the risks of information technology use (cyber security) and personal data protection is medium to low.The results of the research show that in the education of Latvian supervisors it is necessary to allocate place for the acquisition of information technology (cyber security) risk and personal data protection regulation.This research emphasizes the importance of several supervisors’ competences such as digital knowledge and personal data protection, however further research is needed to find the most effective methods how to improve these competences.

Habeas Data is not a commonly known concept, yet it is widely acknowledged in certain circles that deal with information security and data protection. Though it has been around for decades, it has recently gained momentum in Latin America. It is the legal notion that protects any and all information pertaining to the individual, from personal to financial, giving them the power to decide how and where such data can be used. At the same time, most Latin American countries have created laws that protect individuals if their  information is misused. This article examines the concept of Habeas Data from its inception to its current applications, and explains the different approaches and legislations passed in Latin American countries on data protection due to the rise of global cybercrime.

After this, it identifies the actors who contribute to the regulatory environment and their respective regulatory role. The final step is the creation of a table to categorize each actor’s functions in the regulatory regime. Findings ”“ The research concludes that the contracts between financial institutions and technology play a major role on creating and hybrid regulatory environment for data protection.

Negative Impacts

The development of technology, communication, and the internet has positive and negative influences on all sectors of life in society. One of the negative impacts and problems is the alleged criminal act of buying and selling data and the absence of a special law (lex specialist) regarding the regulation of Indonesian personal data. The purpose of this research is to analyze in-depth the efforts to strengthen the protection of personal data, cyber security, and increase public awareness of the perspective of Progressive Law in Indonesia. This study uses a normative juridical method using secondary data, a statutory approach, a conceptual approach, and a case approach. This scientific paper concludes that the Synergy of Ministries and related institutions (Legislative, Executive, and Judiciary) is the key to protecting personal data and cyber resilience. Then, strengthening efforts should be made, namely immediately passing the Draft Law on Personal Data Protection (RUU PDP), forming an independent institution. However, if at this time a dispute occurs, it can be resolved by Article 30 of the ITE Law and the PMH Lawsuit (Tort), supported by a progressive legal approach and futuristic interpretation by the judge examining the quo case. The synergy of government agencies, the private sector, and other stakeholders is needed to increase public awareness by increasing education/dissemination of efforts to prevent misuse of personal data.

Finance Supervision

The global finance crisis of 2008 ushered a new era of finance technologies (fintech) marked by a whole wave of new start-ups supplying new technologies. At the same time the global finance crisis caused a serious reform of finance regulation and considerable revision of finance supervision efficiency. As a result of post-crisis reforms a drastic transformation of the finance market and finance services took place. The author shows that growth in finance technologies raises certain questions for finance bodies, for example, whether it is necessary to extend regulating and supervising perimeter; if new types of digital finance services comply with existing rules; how to identify, estimate, cut and monitor risks of fintech-innovation. There are also questions concerning possible disintermediation caused by finance technologies, which means the exclusion of mediators from production and sale chain, i.e. selling products directly to customers without wholesale and retail resellers and potential impact on finance stability as well as new ways of central banks functioning. And finally, another question, if risks to cyber-security and data protection are well understood, managed and reduced.
