Our research investigates the current state of play for UK RegTech, examining the opportunities and challenges to the future growth and success of the industry. Regulation now penetrates to the core of all financial institutions whether they focus on insurance, banking or asset management. The City of London Corporation, in partnership with RegTech Associates, has undertaken research to understand the opportunities and challenges for this emerging sector. In this new report, we recommend a set of measures to further support the sector to grow and thrive, adding value to the broader financial services sector and the UK economy.
