      Q-FINEX Quantum Readiness Index: A Shared Benchmark

      2027 Special Programme

      An annual benchmark run by GFTN with UWA QUISA, as part of the Q-FINEX platform. Institutions complete a short self-assessment, receive a confidential view of their readiness against peers, and the first findings are launched at Black Swan Summit 2027.

      • How ready is the financial sector for quantum, and where does my institution stand against its peers?

      Five pillars

      • Cryptography

      • Computation

      • Ownership

      • Capability

      • Urgency

      Why it matters

      • Transition plans are expected

        Australia's ASD recommends post-quantum transition plans by the end of 2026, and the G7 roadmap prioritises critical financial systems for 2030–32.

      • A common yardstick

        A confidential view of readiness against peers.

      • A neutral convener

        Run by not-for-profit GFTN with UWA QUISA, not a vendor.
