How Financial Institutions Can Scale Governance for New Regulatory Realities

Brought to you by: RegScale

Financial institutions are facing a rapidly expanding compliance landscape. According to RegScale’s 2026 State of Continuous Controls Monitoring Report, these organizations are more likely than any other industry to spend more than half of their compliance workload addressing regulatory requirements introduced within the past five years, while also managing six or more compliance frameworks. At the same time, the rapid adoption of AI in financial services is introducing another layer of governance complexity. As AI laws, regulatory guidance, and industry frameworks continue to emerge, financial institutions face the challenge of incorporating AI governance into an already demanding compliance environment without creating separate compliance efforts for every new framework.

This podcast details how financial institutions can establish a governance foundation that enables them to assess requirements once, identify remaining gaps, and apply existing controls across multiple frameworks, allowing compliance programs to evolve alongside changing technologies and regulatory expectations.
