Challenges


Complex regulations have been brought forward in key industries and are still incoming, such as:

  • Telecom, Media and Technology: end of net neutrality in the US, end of roaming charges within the EU, General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), upcoming legislation for autonomous cars / IoT

  • Financial Services: MiFID II, Basel IV, Solvency II

Although those changes impact capital allocation and competitive positioning, they can also offer benefits.

Brexit will also affect the EU economy and UK legislation.

 

Solutions


Tackling regulatory changes require an in-depth understanding of the regulatory challenges, a leadership commitment to the new strategy, and a well-thought stakeholder engagement approach.
