Regulatory and Compliance Considerations of Remote Working
Remote working has changed our working model and while most people will welcome it, firms must ensure they have identified all regulatory risks. Lockdown has changed the world of work as we know it. Almost overnight firms were forced to shift to a remote working pattern. Although it has generally gone ahead smoothly, research suggests many firms are looking to make the move permanent. This will have significant implications for their regulatory compliance.
UK Fraud Epidemic is Everybody’s Problem but Nobody’s Priority
In the UK, fraud accounts for more than 50% of reported crime; yet less than 1% of police time is spent investigating it. Several weeks ago, I wrote an article about the UK fraud epidemic, based on a BBC article and think tank report. The overall conclusion was that fraud was not being taken seriously by UK government and law enforcement, and that fraud is seen as "everybody's problem but nobody's priority".
The Future of Women in RegTech
The number of women working in RegTech account for up to 35% of the industry’s workforce, which compares favourably to the FinTech industry, where 29% of roles are held by women. However, more can and should be done - as mentioned by Lucy Heavens, Co-founder of RegTech Women – from encouraging more young women into the RegTech industry, through to supporting women to move up the career ladder.
AI in Financial Services: Overcoming the Barriers to Combat Fraud and Money Laundering
By Michael Wood, CMO at Versa Networks Businesses in all sectors have been under increasing pressure to digitise their offerings in recent years, particularly over the last 12 months in the wake of COVID-19.

Are we at the tipping point for the rapid adoption of RegTech?
By Jane Jee, CEO at Kompli-Global As with any new and more innovative technology that enters the market, it is often the criminals, rather than law-abiding citizens or companies, who are often the first to exploit the technology for their own ill-gotten gains. This is true at any point but especially during exceptional circumstances, much like we’ve experienced this year. The COVID-19 pandemic (and subsequent lockdown) has had a profound effect on us all.
Regtech can help mitigate risk in the property sector
Editor: In September, Purplebricks warned shareholders that it was in discussion with HMRC over its anti-money laundering procedures and that there could be a potential cost. Source: Shutterstock/ 1149993809 If estate agents want to defeat criminal activity, they must be willing to incorporate more specialised regulatory technology (regtech) into their processes. Regtech that features advanced ‘augmented intelligence’ solutions can significantly ease the legislative burden for businesses.
Companies House must do more to stop money laundering
Thanks to a concerted effort by government and private business, we in the UK have made great strides towards tackling money laundering in recent years. Shell companies are not permitted, nor are bearer shares, so the avenues and vehicles for financial crime have been reduced. Nevertheless, gaps still remain in our defences — recent studies and media reports in particular have drawn attention to issues with how Companies House monitors the registration of new businesses.
Lightening the Load of Anti-Money Laundering Legislation
With the threat from money laundering and terrorist financing growing, anti-money laundering (AML) legislation has had to become more stringent in response. The regulatory burden has grown too much for compliance managers to bear on their own. Artificial intelligence (AI) holds the key to helping them combat financial crime effectively. It is impossible to overstate the effect of money laundering and terrorist financing on a nation’s economy[1].
