and advance their capabilities
POWERING UP COMPLIANCE
Compliance functions are encouraged to invest wisely to deliver sustainable risk management, taking
advantage of advances in tools and technologies and equipping the function with the right skills and
mastery of emerging regulatory topics
INNOVATORS, INTEGRATORS AND IMPROVERS
The challenge to innovate has identified groupings of Compliance functions that are plotting different paths to
their desired end state, with “innovators” gaining leadership positions through investments such as advanced
analytics, robotics, or managed services
