Rising demand for RegTech is driven by the need to automate compliance processes, manage increasing regulatory complexity, prevent fraud, and enhance data management through technologies such as artificial intelligence, machine learning, and cloud computing. Financial institutions face escalating compliance costs—up to $1 million annually for some firms—while 45% of global RegTech revenue comes from financial services alone, and over 60% of implementations now use cloud-based solutions for scalability and cost efficiency.
Government initiatives, including regulatory sandboxes in regions like the EU, India, and Hong Kong, are encouraging rapid adoption of RegTech by lowering entry barriers and fostering innovation. Investment funding is robust, with over $13 billion raised globally since 2019 and notable growth among key vendors; for example, Thomson Reuters holds $1.2 billion annual RegTech revenue, and metric-based companies report 30% growth in customer base for risk and compliance solutions.
