Regulatory Data Handbook 2014

Welcome to the inaugural edition of the A-Team Regulatory Data Handbook. We trust you’ll find this guide a useful addition to the resources at your disposal as you navigate the maze of emerging regulations that are making ever more strenuous reporting demands on financial institutions everywhere.

In putting the Handbook together, our rationale has been to provide an at-a-glance guide to those regulations we expect to have the most significant impact on financial institutions data operations. We’ve made a start with nine key regulations, and hope to add an update later in the year that expands the scope.

For each, we’ve provided a quick overview of the whys and wherefores of the regulation, and what it means in terms of data coverage and reporting requirements. We’ve also included a few handy boxes, showing significant milestones achieved so far, important dates and deadlines going forward, and key links to more detailed information.

The intention is to give you an easy reference guide to the regulations impacting your firm that will help you to answer tricky questions as they arise. We’ve asked our sponsors, meanwhile, to pitch in with useful information on the services they offer as solutions to the data challenges of each regulation. So you’ll know who to call for help when you need it.

We hope you find the Handbook useful, and we welcome input on our expansion plans.
