Accurate regulatory reporting is essential for maintaining trust, meeting compliance obligations, and avoiding regulatory scrutiny. However, many firms face challenges in ensuring the reliability of their returns. Inaccurate data, unclear ownership, and weak controls can all undermine the integrity of reporting processes.
Davies’ Financial Crime and Regulatory Compliance team, led by Pritesh Patel and Robert Cranmer, has developed a practical approach to help firms strengthen their regulatory reporting. The document Reliability of Regulatory Returns outlines how Davies supports the first, second, and third lines of defence in reviewing, preparing, and implementing robust reporting practices.
The paper highlights common weaknesses in reporting frameworks. These include fragmented data sources, inconsistent processes, and limited oversight. It also explores how firms can improve assurance by embedding stronger governance, clearer accountability, and better system controls.
Davies offers tailored support to assess and enhance your current approach. This includes reviewing reporting processes, testing data accuracy, and evaluating the effectiveness of controls. Our team works across functions to ensure that reporting is not only accurate but also aligned with regulatory expectations.
