      However, ensuring compliance with all legal and regulatory requirements involves considerable effort: from the application for authorisation to the establishment of internal governance and written rules (work instructions, specialist concepts, process descriptions, setting up controls, documentation requirements, etc.) through to compliance with the relevant accounting and reporting requirements for domestic banks and branches.

      Extended reporting and governance requirements when moving from a branch to a third country branch as part of an EU passporting procedure also pose a major challenge.

      Check that the installation fits and makes sense

      With regard to regulatory reporting in particular, banks should promptly review whether they are set up appropriately and sensibly. Outsourcing regulatory reporting for institutions and branches can make an effective contribution to efficient implementation. This is particularly true in view of the large number of upcoming regulatory changes (e.g. Basel IV, but also the implications of Brexit) and the resulting increasing complexity of banking supervisory law.

      We support you in a goal-orientated and partnership-based manner with excellent solutions in order to optimally master the challenges of a highly competitive market and turn the challenge into an opportunity.
