Navigating the Regulatory Environment

Regulatory risk and scrutiny are critical aspects of doing business in today’s world. Regulatory risk is the potential for losses or damage due to changes or uncertainties in the regulatory environment. Regulatory scrutiny is the process of monitoring and evaluating the compliance and performance of a business with respect to laws, rules, standards, and best practices.

The regulatory environment has become more complex and dynamic over the past three years, due to the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic; the rise of digital platforms and data-privacy issues; geopolitical tensions and trade disputes; the environmental, social, and corporate governance (ESG) reporting requirement; and environmental and social expectations of stakeholders. These factors have increased the regulatory risk and scrutiny faced by businesses across various industries and regions. As such, compliance with regulations and the establishment of comprehensive compliance programs are of utmost importance.

The event will be streamed online and will also be hosted at the PwC offices in Seattle for those who can join in person. A great opportunity to network with local directors, plus free parking!

In this session, we will explore some of the key topics related to regulatory risk and scrutiny, such as:

• Adapting to the changing regulatory landscape by investing in risk management, enhancing governance, and adopting proactive strategies
• Utilizing technology and innovation to comply with regulations, improve efficiency, and create value
• Addressing challenges and opportunities presented by new regulations in various domains such as ESG, cybersecurity, digital safety, and artificial intelligence
