Compliance risk has always been a key source of concern for FSIs. But the increasingly onerous demands of regulation such as 6AMLD, alongside the data protection requirements of GDPR and the growing sophistication of cyber criminals, have made the risk landscape increasingly complex.

With increased liability for individuals when it comes to protecting data from fraudsters and human error, and consumer awareness of data privacy on the rise, FSIs are now forced to put compliance at the top of their agendas – or face the financial and reputational costs of a breach. But FSIs can only ensure compliance across business areas and geographies if they have complete visibility of their data.

However, many FSIs are battling against siloed and unstructured data locked ageing systems in disparate parts of the business, meaning attempts to make compliance more efficient with automation, metadata and AI often fail at the first hurdle.

To remedy these issues, many organisations are exploring the concept of data fabrics, which can connect different sources of data across IT infrastructure from edge to cloud computing, as well as use AI and advanced metadata to improve data governance and provide proof of compliance to the regulators. This digital roundtable with industry peers will focus on the key challenges and opportunities FSI leaders face as they explore new data management strategies to reduce compliance risk, better leverage the value within data and drive efficiencies.
