In-person event

Navigating the regulatory maze: The essential role of GRC tools in compliance management.

Wednesday, 16 April, 8am - 10:15am

KPMG, 1 Harbourmaster Place | IFSC | Dublin 1 | Ireland

Join us for this face-to-face event, where KPMG and Protecht will share insights and perspectives on how market participants are utilising GRC tools like Protecht to move beyond the initial compliance hurdles of new regulations and towards embedding and integrating them into their day-to-day business activities.

We will provide an in-depth look at integrating regulatory obligations into existing GRC tools, with Protecht using our recently released DORA module as a case study. Over the past 12–24 months, many firms have found the sheer volume of data and information collection for DORA to be burdensome. In this session, we will share practical tips and demonstrate streamlined processes to help firms embed DORA, and other regulatory obligations more effectively.

Additionally, we will discuss best practices and highlight common pitfalls when implementing your GRC tools, ensuring you get the most out of them.
