RegTech is a subset of FinTech that leverages new technologies, such as cloud computing, big data, SI, ML, and NLP, to address the regulatory challenges within the financial industry. However, the adoption of RegTech is being witnessed in the non-finance industries as the scope of RegTech offers wide possibilities by leveraging these technologies and catering to unmet needs in these industries. RegTech solutions solve regulatory and compliance requirements more effectively and efficiently. The objective of RegTech is to enhance transparency as well as consistency and standardize regulatory processes for delivering sound interpretations of ambiguous regulations and provide higher quality at low cost.
The financial crisis of 2008 changed the Banking, Financial Services, and Insurance (BFSI) industry forever, sowing the seed for massive regulatory renovation and increased compliance costs. Since 2008, regulators have imposed more than USD 300 billion in fines and penalties on firms that have failed to achieve compliance standards. Thus, companies are investing heavily in the adoption of RegTech solutions. The worldwide investment in RegTech has more than tripled over the last five years. There are a large number of RegTech startups operating in the regulatory space. For achieving compliance, innovative RegTech companies are reducing the cost by automating complex compliance processes. They are helping financial institutions meet regulatory obligations by, for example, providing aggregated global credit and Anti-Money Laundering (AML) risk data; providing on-boarding, screening, and monitoring tools for due diligence and Know Your Customer (KYC) processes; and the recording, storage, and analytics of regulated telephone conversations.
