OPX, the RegTech product that adds value

The LSE recently stated that “the ideal RegTech product would be able to provide modular support, integrated in day-to-day operations and create not only cost savings and efficiencies, but improve functionality and reduce regulatory risk”.

Back office, workforce management solution OPX boasts all the properties of the perfect RegTech product and we want to go further to explain why the value it adds extends beyond simply meeting regulatory compliance.

What is RegTech?

RegTech, or the ‘baby brother’ of FinTech, was developed to help organisations address and adhere to the ever-changing regulatory nature of the financial industry. With the number of regulatory changes banks must deal with on a daily basis increasing dramatically from 10 to 185 in a decade, (FintechTimes) technology that assists them in better understanding and tackling this is becoming a fundamental investment.

RegTech is essentially taking two developing areas of the financial industry, technology and regulation, and combining them to promote best practise across the organisation. It matters because it helps financial institutions to manage risk, reduce error and remain compliant in the face of the regulators.

A RegTech product – how could it add value?

RegTech helps organisations to better understand the risks associated with what they’re doing and how to avoid them. If RegTech can help companies to adhere to compliance better, it can drive significant cost savings by eliminating error and waste.
