SUMMARY:SupTech & RegTech: Disruptive Technologies in Reporting\, Regulatio
 n & Supervision of Digital Financial Services – Challenges & Opportunitie
 s for players in the Financial System.
DESCRIPTION:Background:\nTechnology-enabled innovation in financial servic
 es (FinTechs) and Digital Financial Services (DFS) are transforming the glo
 bal financial landscape\, presenting opportunities\, risks and challenges 
 for regulated institutions and authorities alike. These developments which 
 come with a set of emerging challenges and concerns for regulators and the 
 regulated institutions\, such as cybersecurity threats\, data security\, pr
 ivacy and protection\, money laundering/terrorism financing (ML/TF) risks 
 have triggered a comprehensive reform of the financial regulatory architec
 ture\, as well as a profound rethinking of the effectiveness of financial 
 supervision.\n \nTo address these challenges\, it is important that author
 ities and regulated institutions embrace innovative technological solutions
 . One significant area of innovation is the application of new technologie
 s to help authorities to improve their supervisory and regulatory capabilit
 ies – known as ‘SupTech’ and ‘RegTech’ for Regulators --- and by 
 institutions to meet their regulatory requirements – known as ‘RegTech
 ’. These new technologies\, SupTech and RegTechs for Regulators and regul
 ated institutions have important benefits for financial stability. For re
 gulators\, the use of SupTech improves oversight\, surveillance and analyti
 cal capabilities\, and generates real time indicators of risk to support fo
 rward looking\, judgement based\, supervision and policymaking. While for r
 egulated institutions\, the use of RegTech could improve compliance outcome
 s\, ease regulatory burden and streamline reporting processes\, enhance ris
 k management capabilities and generate new insights into the business for i
 mproved\ndecision-making.\n \nDespite the opportunities and benefits whic
 h SupTech and RegTech brings\, regulatory authorities and financial servic
 e providers are vigilant to possible risks that could arise from the use of
  such technologies. These risks include\, the risks of skills and resourcin
 g\, cyber risk\, reputational risk\, data quality issues\, over reliance on
  the SupTech & RegTech tools and the potential for limited transparency or 
 “explainability” in the design and output of the tools. To navigate the
  complexities in the use of these technologies\, financial regulators and 
 regulated institutions need to develop capabilities and adapt these tools f
 or effective and efficient regulation compliance\, supervision and oversigh
 t outcomes.\n \nIt is against this background that FITC is organizing a 5-
  day programme on SupTech & RegTech: Disruptive Technologies in Reporting\,
  Regulation & Supervision of Digital Financial Services – Challenges & Op
 portunities for players in the Financial System to support regulators and r
 egulated institutions build a resilient financial system.\n \nTarget Audi
 ence:\nThis course is designed to equip a variety of actors across the regu
 latory landscape\, including:\n\nRegulators (Central Banks\, Financial Supe
 rvisory Authorities)\nCompliance & Risk Officers (Commercial Banks\, Digita

 ica\, this provides practical knowledge on the design\, adoption and implem
 entation of RegTech and SupTech tools that engenders regulatory and supervi
 sory agility and financial system stability.\nFor Compliance and Risk offi
 cers\, it helps define high-level challenges to be aware of\nFor Fintechs 
 and Payment providers\, it highlights the future of the space and what offe
 rings they will need to work for\nLegal and Control Professionals will also
  be able to touch and feel the key components of regulation and supervision
  that will impact their professions.\nPension Operators\, it will help to a
 utomate regulatory reporting and ensure real-time compliance with investmen
 t guidelines and risk thresholds.\nFor Pension Regulator\, it will help the
 m monitor fund performance and operational risk in real-time and detect ano
 malies in contribution remittances and withdrawals.\n\n \n \nLearning Out
