“ Complying with the newly mandated regulations (e.g. Basel III, MiFID, EMIR) is an ongoing effort: 90% of industry executives expect it to take between one and five years to execute on these regulations. “

The challenge

Since the financial crash, government regulators continue to push the compliance bar higher and higher, imposing greater scrutiny, tighter regulations and harsher consequences onto financial firms.

Certain individuals are being held personally accountable for the firm’s actions.  They must evidence control in their processes, ensure that their data is timely, accurate and complete in order to meet their obligations like BASEL III, MiFID II, EMIR, SFTR, ASIC & HKMA Reporting and CAT.

Firm-specific governance rules and contractual third-party compliance, layer on greater demands for control.  And simultaneously, data volumes have been exploding with more new banking data anticipated to be created in the next year that has existed in the whole of human history.

The speed of change of a firms’ system infrastructure is also increasing at an alarming rate, exacerbated by mergers, acquisitions and divestitures as political boundaries and international relationships change in nature.

All the while, more and more independent systems from different eras, different regulatory jurisdictions, built on different technologies, are being wired together.

Existing control systems, conceived prior to the financial crash, simply cannot cope with the requirements of the world we operate in today. Consequently, every regulatory deadline brings with it an enormous IT project burden as well as the people and process change programs.  For some firms, it is easier to pay the non-compliance fine than it is to comply with the regulation.

This is a perfect storm, making it virtually impossible for some firms to be truly compliant within regulatory expectations.
