We believe compliance and regulation can actually be the springboard for re-shaping, refining and re-energising the processes that drive a business’s purpose.
Through the expertise of our consultants, our harnessing of the latest technologies, we can not only help business navigate this evolving commercial landscape but flourish.
The growing demands on businesses in the sectors where we specialise only increases the pressure on them in the current economic climate.
Our role – in such significantly changed and continually changing circumstances – is not simply to provide advice that ensures businesses are, at bare minimum, fit for purpose. Instead, on the basis that Compliance & Regulation are here to stay, it is to recognise that these obligations are actually opportunities and to devise pro-active, front foot compliance programmes.
We do this by combining high-value consulting services with cost-effective delivery processes. First, our network of experts (in each case their expertise is specifically matched to the business’s requirements) identify the strategic issues. Deep understanding of technology then allows us to implement better processes.
For compliance, read transformation.
Remediation can address a regulator’s concerns about any aspect of a firm’s past business, or any that a firm has about products or processes which may have caused unintentional consumer harm. Looking backwards also offers vital learning for going forwards, demonstrates transparency and builds trust with stakeholders.
In today’s tech-driven marketplace, there is no lessening of expectations while a business has to deal with the demands of Compliance & Regulation. In fact, technology has raised customer expectations. They take continuous service improvement as a given and expect faster, better and more efficient.
It means Compliance & Regulation is not just about satisfying new rules but knowing how these new rules can be a springboard for delivering better processes and programmes that match the unique circumstances of each business.
At RTM, we understand this duality. We not only advise on what has to be done, we take responsibility for programme deliverables and day-to-day resource management.
We use innovative, best of breed methodologies, we implement bespoke solutions and we do it collaboratively, flexibly and cost effectively. To deliver value and build trust.
The expectation that a business will meet new regulations and still perform better doesn’t end here. In today’s increasingly complex environment, the presumption is the business will satisfy a third criterion and do everything with the same or less resources.
This means technology isn’t an option, it’s a necessity and is why deep knowledge of the latest technology (AI, machine learning and block chain) is such an integral part of our consultancy. It is how we turn obligations into opportunities: whether that’s automating or streamlining compliance checks, introducing contract lifecycle management solutions, or dealing with large scale data discovery issues.
The results are the transformation of legal and business processes while managing the change that this inevitably has on a client’s business. It is the role of our experts to maximise and minimise the impact as appropriate.
From compliance auditing to ongoing subsidiary management.
Ensuring the compliance does not fall on the weakest link in the chain
Holistically managing the response to regulatory changes or business direction including counterparty outreach and negotiation.
In-depth analysis, benchmarking, risk analysis as well as remediation and forward monitoring of a business’s ESG standing.
Through technology bringing congruence to often disparate and complex inter-operational processes.
Providing Executive level oversight of Key risks and materiality on a business wide basis with clear causal and control path.
Our consultants deep sector specific expertise is the most cited difference our clients tell us sets us apart. Rather than assigning junior team members to undertake the most critical parts of our engagements we provide executive oversight and involvement in the most detailed components of work. How can we do this and still retain a reasonable and competitive cost, because we are as focused on keeping our own overheads low as we are in saving money and reducing risk for our clients.
