London, 20 February 2018 –The industry has been bombarded with compliance requirements since 2008, and understanding how each of the regulations correlates or conflicts with the others is an unwieldy task.

Technology must be a part of this new approach, and a new industry buzzword—regtech—reflects the industry demand for technology to better arm the compliance function.
