The rapidly evolving regulatory landscape has put challenges on banks to keep up with the changing demands around compliance. Banks will have to increase the granularity and frequency of reporting, and reframe up to 340,000 individual data points, compared to the 4,000+ currently.

KPMG’s Regulatory Integrated Solution (KRIS) is introduced to offer a cost efficient and highly agile approach to help banks address these changes as well as to comply with the revised MAS Notices, such as 610/1003.

As a holistic solution, it also alleviates banks’ efforts to keep up with regulatory knowledge while maintaining the quality and accuracy of the data produced and manage the surmounting costs of compliance.

Key benefits

• Cost saving (reduces labor cost)

• Time saving

• Data accuracy

• Knowledge transfer from KPMG

At this initial stage, KRIS addresses the banks’ immediate concerns by providing regulatory reporting, technology and operation support. This can be extended to support other MAS returns too.

Typical Regulatory Reporting Process by Bank

How KRIS works

Bank officers to map data from relevant sources and extract into the regulatory reporting data mart. Different parts of the report will be prepared by different sections (E.g. Finance, Middle Operations, Credit). Bank officers to submit collated report into reporting engine for validation. Bank officers to review reports and perform variance analysis manually to ensure accuracy. Submission to MASNET.

Bank officers to conduct data sourcing and pass data to KRIS. KRIS will assist to do data integration and mapping. KRIS generates and validates reports. KRIS will share final report with banks for review. Submission to MASNET.

In a nutshell, the banks that subscribe to KRIS will only need to conduct final validation/review of the returns prior to submission to MAS.
