The challenge
With regulations such as Dodd-Frank, EMIR, MiFID II and the FCA rules now well established, it is imperative for companies to be able to demonstrate compliance with each rule and their pathway to regulatory compliance. Whereas some time was provided by regulators in the initial implementation period, expectations are now more stringent, including immediate demonstration of regulatory compliance.
Spreadsheets can become quickly outdated and emails difficult to find, meaning that they are not effective tools for showcasing regulatory interpretations and changes to operational processes to regulators or auditors.
