Fintech, regtech, suptech and central bank decision making

Since the 1990s, the world has experienced significant leaps in technological development. Mobile phones have gone from being large devices to minicomputers, while the world has inched closer to self-driving cars. Advances in technology have taken humanity to new levels in all facets of society. Health technology (healthtech) has revolutionised medical treatment, while financial technology (fintech) has widened access to finance and changed the consumer experience of financial services. The regulatory technology (regtech) sector, which develops technological solutions to resolve regulatory and compliance challenges in the financial services industry, has achieved similar progress. These solutions are designed to make the process of regulatory compliance more efficient and less time-consuming by utilising the latest technological advancements. This chapter will therefore discuss the impact of regtech in the context of regulatory reporting and regulatory disclosures.

This chapter sets out to determine how stakeholders in the financial services industry can develop a digital infrastructure to capitalise on the promise of regtech and improve disclosures to foster market discipline
