Managing Compliance Risks in the New Norm

In a very short duration, COVID-19 has significantly disrupted our way of life and created a new normal. There are massive changes to how financial institutions operate and what regulators expect. Compliance teams are now working even more closely with the business to help them adapt to the new normal and pre-empt any emerging risks – especially digital communication and financial crimes risk. Current risk mitigation techniques, such as transaction monitoring, trade surveillance, e-mail monitoring, and social media monitoring, are falling short in managing these risks now. Thereby exposing the financial institutions to unexpected financial and reputational damages. The task to mitigate these risks has landed squarely on the shoulders of the Compliance function. With no clear visibility on the new normal, this task has become even more challenging.
