The Compliance Problem

Many organizations continue to struggle—and often fall short—when it comes to building effective compliance and operational risk management programs.

Past To

The Present

Over the past decade, financial services firms have faced a dramatic rise in regulatory scrutiny.
Since the 2008 financial crisis, regulatory expectations have steadily intensified—demanding not only greater focus on compliance and risk, but also increased investment in the resources and talent required to support them.

Today, “adequate” compliance risk management is no longer enough. Organizations are now expected to implement robust, well-resourced programs that foster a strong culture of compliance, ethics, and risk awareness at every level.

Critical Management Concern

Many organizations continue to rely on outdated point solutions and manual processes, creating a significant barrier to effective risk and compliance management.
For leadership, identifying the right strategies to meet evolving organizational needs is a complex challenge—especially when daily operational demands consume time and attention. The result? Long-term strategic initiatives and robust operational risk management solutions often remain under-prioritized due to limited resources and competing priorities.

At the Heart of the Problem

Due to fragmented technology platforms, inconsistent policies, and the manual nature of many compliance processes, Compliance Risk Professionals spend up to 80% of their time simply “hunting and gathering” data and information.
This inefficiency results in the underutilization of highly skilled professionals, who are often relegated to acting as data aggregators rather than strategic risk managers. As a result, less time is available for critical compliance and risk management tasks such as:

  • Conducting in-depth risk assessments

  • Identifying emerging regulatory issues

  • Enhancing control frameworks

  • Monitoring high-risk areas

  • Leading strategic compliance initiatives

  • Advising business units on compliance implications
