5 RegTechs enhancing compliance for India’s BFSI sector

By Gloria Mathias

RegTech, or regulatory-technology, plays a crucial role in the financial space by streamlining compliance processes, reducing costs, and enhancing the accuracy and efficiency of regulatory adherence.

Financial institutions face an increasingly complex regulatory environment with stringent requirements for data reporting, customer verification, anti-money laundering (AML) measures, and risk management. RegTech solutions leverage advanced technologies such as artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning (ML), and blockchain to automate these processes, enabling real-time monitoring and reporting, which significantly reduces the manual workload and mitigates the risk of human error.

As reported by IBS Intelligence, the RegTech market is expected to reach $23.6 billion by 2029, growing at a CAGR of 16.5%, according to the report based on meticulous research. The growing number of fraudulent activities, the increasing need for regulatory compliance processes to be automated, and the increasing need for faster transactions are driving the growth of the RegTech market. However, the high costs of solutions and dashboards restrain the growth of this market.
