Rakia shares a battle-tested approach to embedding compliance into product design using zero-trust architecture and open-source components. She explains why leaders must clarify the “why” behind regulatory change, and why developers should start from existing regulations—auditing “digital beliefs” (data quality, infra, policies) before layering AI. Expect takeaways on aligning to DORA/ISO, secure-by-design patterns, proactive threat modeling, and how inclusive governance reduces risk by reflecting the communities you serve.

The FINOS Open Source in Finance Podcast, presented by FINOS, delves into the practical realities of applying open source principles within the financial sector. This isn't a theoretical discussion; it's a series of conversations with industry experts who share their direct experiences implementing specific technologies. Episodes explore the tangible benefits and challenges of projects focused on areas like desktop interoperability, which streamlines how complex applications work together, and low-code platforms that accelerate development. Listeners will hear detailed analysis on using synthetic data for testing and innovation, as well as approaches to effective data modeling. The dialogue extends into organizational strategy, covering best practices for establishing successful inner source programs and fostering collaborative development cultures inside large institutions. Each episode of this podcast focuses on a concrete use case or a pressing question at the intersection of finance and open collaboration, providing actionable insights rather than abstract concepts. It's a resource for professionals who want to understand how open source is actively shaping tools, processes, and competitive advantages in financial services today.
