PANEL: Regulatory toolbox 101 – the inner workings of the risk management machinery of a regulator
The regulator’s data and compliance functions play a crucial role in managing industry risks. Building effective risk management frameworks that facilitate the identification and processing of complex datasets supports more targeted regulatory interventions at a pre-enforcement stage, creating more opportunities for compliance. Understanding emerging risks, utilisation of data and automation are vital components in effective processing of licensed entities’ information at scale and being able to leverage the available information in a way that promotes a result-driven methodology.
This panel will delve into the challenges faced by regulators, focusing on the importance of utilising data in regulatory risk management frameworks, specifically risk matrix methodologies, compliance oversight and automation, regulatory reporting, and facilitating the engagement of licensees in delivering better compliance programs.
