Competitive Strategy and Development:
Global Headlines on RegTech:
The Europe RegTech market is segmented into the UK, Germany , France , Italy , Russia , and the Rest of Europe . The UK held a significant RegTech market share in Europe . The adoption of technology in regulatory and compliance efforts in the UK has led to the emergence of new risks, such as cyber threats, fraud, and financial crimes. Presently, there are 25–30% of UK firms which have shown their preparedness to establish processes that align with regulatory guidelines. As a result, RegTech companies are actively exploring creative approaches to implement these systems more effectively and efficiently. Furthermore, in September 2017 , the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) partnered with R3, RBS, and other major banks to develop a prototype application using distributed ledger technology (blockchain) for regulatory reporting of mortgage transactions. This innovative prototype enables the automatic generation of receipts upon mortgage bookings, streamlining the regulatory reporting process.
The UK stands out among nations for its comprehensive set of regulatory reforms, including the Markets in Financial Instruments Directive (MiFID), European Market Infrastructure Regulation (EMIR), BASEL III, and Payment Service Directive (PSD). These regulations have been implemented to enhance liquidity and transparency within the financial system. Considering the uncertainties surrounding Brexit, RegTech companies must adapt their solutions accordingly when implementing RegTech solutions for major financial services firms. This flexibility ensures that the potential impacts and variations resulting from Brexit are effectively addressed and incorporated.
Blockchain technology has gained massive traction in the financial industry due to its potential to reduce the time taken for interbank transactions and improve operational efficiency. Many financial firms view blockchain as a mechanism to make transactions faster, minimize error rates, and eliminate the need for reconciliation. Blockchain technology is particularly well-suited is the payments space. By leveraging blockchain, financial institutions can bring down multiday settlement cycles to real-time, enhancing transaction operations. This has the potential to improve companies' capabilities for Anti-Money Laundering (AML), Know Your Customer (KYC), and regulatory compliance data.
The huge adoption of blockchain technology results in faster transactions and settlements, benefiting both financial institutions and their customers. By eliminating the need for intermediaries, such as clearinghouses and custodians, blockchain can streamline the process and reduce costs. This can help banks avoid labor-intensive procedures with their customers and currency exchanges. In addition to speed and efficiency, blockchain technology offers enhanced security and transparency. Transactions recorded on the blockchain network are approved by multiple computers and devices, reducing the potential for human error and ensuring accurate records. The decentralized and immutable nature of blockchain makes it tamper-proof, providing a secure platform for financial transactions. Hence, all the associated benefits are anticipated to offer lucrative opportunities for market growth.
AI and ML are robust technologies that are deemed necessary for the automation of business operations. These technologies are also capable of spotting industry trends and providing quick and accurate insights. AI-based systems have the potential to analyze massive amounts of data to detect trends and abnormalities, enabling regulated companies to prevent fraud. To remain relevant in an ever-changing environment, firms should constantly develop their rule-based parameters. AI-powered RegTech solutions may help regulated organizations efficiently acquire, process, and analyze data for regulatory reporting as financial transactions expand.
Further, Blockchain is a decentralized, distributed digital ledger that records transactions safely and transparently. Its appeal in the RegTech business stems from its capacity to confer transparency, immutability, and record security. Creating a tamper-proof audit trail for regulatory reporting involves accurate and verifiable information. Blockchain is spread throughout a network of systems, with each machine keeping a copy of the ledger. Blockchain technology eliminates the need for central control, allowing the authentication and recording of transactions without the involvement of a trusted third party, thereby supporting the decentralization, security, and transparency features of RegTech solutions. Thus, the expansion of AI, machine learning, and Blockchain applications is emerging as a significant global RegTech market trend.
