Most financial institutions have access to excellent regulatory intelligence. The opportunity lies in doing more with it. The journey from typology to live detection rule is difficult and lengthily - meaning valuable insight from industry bodies, FIUs, and enforcement actions rarely translates into updated controls. Always-on compliance is changing that dynamic, giving institutions a practical model for continuously converting regulatory intelligence into calibrated, active detection.
