KUALA LUMPUR, April 21 (Bernama) -- A new study from Juniper Research has found that global regtech spend will exceed US$204 billion by 2026; accounting for over 50 per cent of all regulatory compliance spend for the first time. (US$1 = RM4.283)
According to a statement, this spend will grow from US$68 billion in 2022; representing growth of over 200 per cent over the next four years.
The report identified the integration of regtech services with BaaS (Banking-as-a-Service) models as key to realising this future market growth.
The new research, Regtech: Emerging Trends, Regulatory Impact & Market Forecasts 2022‑2026, predicts that BaaS models, which include outsourcing regtech services such as digital onboarding, will be key in accelerating AI-based automation for online document verification and KYC (Know Your Customer) processes.
AI-powered onboarding enables financial institutions to benefit from real-time progress reporting and automation, which help meet rising client expectations and reduce compliance cost.
According to the research, 26 per cent of digital onboarding processes in the banking market will use AI systems by 2026, compared to just eight per cent in 2022.
Beyond digital onboarding, the report suggests that regtech will leverage BaaS models to swiftly expand the use of AI in banking for more comprehensive tasks, including fraud detection and mitigation.
Research author Harshada Thok explains: “Whilst the current benefits of AI are clear to regtech vendors, the immediate focus must be on ensuring the algorithms are fed the most relevant data to maximise their efficiency in verifying digital identities and future use cases.
“In turn, this will provide a differentiation point for regtech vendors in an increasingly competitive market.”
