Changes to the regulatory environment
Since the outbreak of the 2008/9 financial crisis, a wealth of legislation and regulatory requirements have been established by authorities on both sides of the Atlantic. Considering the external risk environment, plus changes to internal business environments and the aforementioned regulatory enforcement, banks and insurance companies must strictly supervise their three lines of defence: risk, control and audit.
