Regulatory Risk Management

Regulatory risk has never been so much in focus. In the banking sector many banks had not completed their Basel II programmes when the financial crisis hit and the BIS came forward with its Basel III proposals. The extensive regulatory response to the financial crisis, which includes the Dodd-Frank Act and the European Market Infrastructure Regulation (EMIR), also places substantial demands on institutions to adapt to new rules and market structures. The buy side has also seen substantial change through the UCITS regulations, and Solvency II has been a major priority for institutions in the insurance sector.

Maintaining visibility of regulatory change is essential to allow the implications to be identified and business, operations and technology changes to be executed in order to ensure compliance. InteDelta assists clients in understanding the implications of regulatory change for their business, specifying and prioritising change and managing subsequent implementation programmes in a structured and disciplined manner through in line with the InteDelta Delivery Lifecycle.

InteDelta can advise clients across a range of regulatory initiatives including Basel II/III, Solvency II and Dodd-Frank. We have experienced subject matter experts in these areas and this expertise is at the heart of the InteDelta Consulting Approach. Our Benefit Assessor suite of tools helps clients to assess the impact of regulatory change (although in the case of new regulation the benefits may not always be positive!) and where regulation offers institutions a choice (for example the implementation of the Internal Model Method under Basel II) we can help clients to plan their optimal strategy.
