Leading tech VCs based in the United States and Europe are set to appear on a SaaS lounge webinar focused on RegTech investment.
Representatives from Flashpoint VC, Lytical Ventures, the Sony Innovation Fund and Talis Capital will gather online to discuss investment in regulatory technology and what it means for tech companies, consumers and investors everywhere.
You can register for the event, which will take place on November 3rd at 2pm UK time (10am EST), by clicking below.
According to FinTech Global, dozens of RegTech companies raised more than $18 billion in 2021, doubling the previous high of $7.8bn in 2020. Despite worries about global economic instability, investment into RegTech companies remained strong and consistent in 2022 too, according to Thomson Reuters.
Significant investment from venture capitalists is not expected to slow down in the coming months, either, as companies look to make their compliance processes more efficient and transparent amid thousands of new complex regulations coming into effect.
“Companies need to evolve their approach to compliance from reactive to proactive and dynamic,” said Evgeny Likhoded (pictured top), CEO and founder at Clausematch. “That’s why the trend of compliance departments turning to regulatory technology and automation is accelerating.
“We are seeing a growing investment and M&A activity in the Compliance and RegTech market, because the regulatory burden is increasing and compliance is not optional.
“The recent spotlight on ESG also means that companies need to address risks posed by the ‘extended enterprise’ and push their ESG obligations down their supply chain.
“What follows from that is the requirement even for small suppliers to maintain and prove compliance with obligations imposed by their enterprise customers.”
The online forum will hear from top investment managers and investors as well as representatives from Clausematch, including Likhoded. They will discuss the significant shifts in RegTech coming to the industry; which solutions are catching the eye of VCs and why; and which compliance tools and functionalities are most useful to a company.
