Replay: Embedding RegTech to manage the vastly Interlinked Sustainable Finance Regulations

Yesterday we had the opportunity to organize an unique online event with leading industry experts from the dutch and Frankfurt am Main financial sectors – Allen & Overy Deutschland and Compendor. 

The session covered the most recent regulatory developments, with a special focus on the Sustainable Disclosure Regulation and how to close compliance gaps. In the session, Alexander Behrens, Partner at Allen & Overy, presented a strategic overview of ESG regulatory landscape and Elmo Olieslagers, Partner at Compendor, emphasized strategies on closing the compliance gaps.

Agenda & Topics Covered

  2. Overview of drivers for complexities
    – Overview of complex law making process
    – No single act – instead sustainability rules are scattered around different areas of law

    – Many of these acts contain different approaches and many of them are interconnected
  3. How can RegTech support with the complexities?
    – Demo
