Regulatory Watch

Anticipating regulatory challenges with the Regulatory Watch

Financial institutions nowadays deal with a great variety of increasingly complex regulatory requirements (e.g. Solvency II, IFRS 17, Basel IV). New and emerging regulations have a major impact on the operations and business models of financial institutions. Moreover, financial institutions are challenged with technical standards and subsequent supervisory reviews and - as the case may be - actual enforcement.

Your challenge

 

Understanding the business impact combined with the effort to become and remain compliant is demanding. At the same time oversight is required in the huge amount of regulatory and supervisory initiatives. Capturing relevant regulation is obviously important, but an efficient methodology to prioritize, assess and allocate the right type of focus within your organization is equally important. Meanwhile, minor regulatory changes may cause large compliance costs if not spotted on time.

 

Why Deloitte

 

Deloitte has developed the Regulatory Watch as part of its Regulatory Suite offering. The Regulatory Watch facilitates its clients to stay in control of their regulatory agendas. The Regulatory Watch is an effective and efficient tool which makes it possible to monitor regulatory changes continuously. This is crucial in order to ensure regulatory compliance at an acceptable cost level, offering:

  • Overview of the regulatory agenda on the relevant and specific laws applicable to your organization
  • Prioritization based on business impact and priority/cost of (non) compliance
  • Insights on the best practice view
  • Utilizing Deloitte’s international network and strong footprint in the financial sector will strengthen the Regulatory Watch in spotting potential compliance issues.
