La déclaration conjointe du 11e dialogue financier Royaume-Uni Singapour, publiée le 20 octobre 2026, indique que les deux gouvernements ont échangé sur leur approche de la sécurité quantique et sur les attentes prudentielles envers les institutions financières qui passent à des technologies à sécurité quantique, y compris les lignes directrices de migration post-quantique du NCSC et les leçons du bac à sable de distribution quantique de clés de l'Autorité monétaire de Singapour.

The 11th UK Singapore Financial Dialogue was held in Singapore and its joint statement went up on GOV.UK on October 20, 2026. Under digital finance and innovation, the two sides took stock of cooperation on digital assets, artificial intelligence and quantum technologies. The quantum exchange covered each country's approach to quantum security and the supervisory expectations placed on financial institutions moving to quantum-safe technologies, referencing the NCSC's post-quantum cryptography migration guidance and the lessons from MAS's quantum key distribution sandbox with industry partners.
The statement does not set new rules. Its significance is that quantum security now sits in a treasury level bilateral agenda as a supervisory matter, alongside capital markets and sustainable finance, ahead of the UK's G20 presidency in 2027.
Supervisory expectations arrive before regulations do. Canadian financial institutions and credit unions already face Bill C-8's obligations as designated operators and the G7 call to action their government co-signed. When two major financial centres compare notes on what supervisors will expect of banks moving to quantum-safe technology, the direction for OSFI and provincial regulators is not hard to read. Canada has set deadlines, most people have not read them. An inventory an auditor will accept is the first thing a supervisor will ask for.
