Compliance Management Solutions
As organizations have been dealing with with the difficult situation of managing with a reduced workforce over the past few years, the reality is that their compliance obligations have been building up – often to an extent that is currently unknown to the organization. Additionally, the expertise and skill set required to understand the compliance expectations, with the knowledge of how to interpret the rules and the ability to develop a plan of action to manage the obligation and the organizational program to ensure that the compliance requirement is continuously met going forward is in most instances, no longer with the organization. Compounding this problem is the fact that the existing resources remaining in the organization are too stretched to even begin dealing with the issue.
The Regulators have continued their drive for strengthening regulations, creating new programs, and increasing consequences for non-compliance. Additionally, the requirement to sign off the declaration that all regulatory obligations and submit it to the various regulators is becoming more commonplace and is usually assigned to senior leadership. The consequences of non-compliance are becoming more severe and more public.
