Compliance and risk management isn’t just about avoiding pitfalls — it’s also about creating advantage. Today’s leaders are asking critical questions: Where should we place our next bets? Which risks are worth taking for greater reward? These complex discussions are exactly where strong risk management can add real value. When done well, compliance and risk can be a catalyst for growth and success. In this session, we’ll explore how advanced analytics and risk quantification are delivering measurable benefits for organisations — from solid data foundations and process readiness to cutting-edge risk insights.

Evolving Compliance and Risk Management for Future Readiness

As regulatory complexity increases, organizations are turning to artificial intelligence (AI) to help modernize their compliance programs. From automating manual processes to monitoring regulatory changes in real time, AI has the potential to transform how risk and compliance teams operate.

Businesses need to build a governance model that supports responsible, scalable use of AI across the organization, while reducing risk exposure and increasing efficiency. Join experts from Archer and EY for a practical discussion on how AI is being applied to compliance management today and what to consider as new global regulations like the EU AI Act and evolving U.S. state laws take shape.

You’ll gain insight into:
• How AI-powered tools help centralize controls, automate workflows, and identify compliance gaps
• Ways to align AI initiatives with regulatory requirements and emerging global standards
• Strategies for building a sustainable compliance program in a rapidly evolving environment

Managing Compliance in the Age of AI

In today's fast-paced global economy, reliance on third-party partners is critical — but it also introduces new layers of risk that go well beyond traditional financial, legal, and compliance concerns. Unexpected vulnerabilities can emerge through your vendors and their extended networks, threatening everything from operational resilience to reputational impact.

Advancing RMIS with an AI Data Strategy

Compliance and risk management are as much about gaining an advantage as avoiding negative events. Leaders are asking tough questions: Where should our next investment go? Is there risk we should take that is worth the reward? These are nuanced conversations where risk management functions can play a pivotal role. If compliance and risk management is well managed, your efforts can be a key ingredient to success. Watch this webcast to learn how advanced analytics and risk quantification have resulted in specific improvements for organizations.

The rapid evolution of artificial intelligence (AI) is reshaping industries, and compliance and regulatory practices are no exception. For professionals in compliance and risk management, staying ahead of this technological shift is critical, as traditional methods of addressing regulatory challenges may no longer be sufficient.  

Companies must now consider how to integrate AI-powered solutions into their compliance strategy to improve decision-making, reduce risk, and optimize performance. The focus is on the current state of RegTech, the role of AI in its transformation, and what organizations need to prioritize to stay competitive and compliant. 

Join Kayvan Alikhani, Vice President of Product Development Engineering for Archer, for this webinar to learn about: 
• Key changes in RegTech over the last decade and the impact of AI.  
• Best practices for selecting and implementing interoperable RegTech solutions.

How AI is Redefining Regulatory Technology

Archer and EY have come together to delivery this insightful webcast on ‘The EU AI Act in Focus: Ecosystem-Wide Strategies for Responsible AI’. The discussion will explore why AI governance must go beyond just meeting EU AI Act requirements and become a core, sustainable process within organizations. This session will foster important conversations for developing an AI governance strategy that adapts and grows with your organization’s needs.

Watch this webcast to learn:

• Key themes such as adopting a risk-based approach over mere compliance, building sustainable governance that addresses multiple regulations, and focusing on operational effectiveness rather than just regulatory adherence.

• The importance of a multidisciplinary approach to AI governance, where legal, risk, compliance, audit, and technical teams collaborate.

• Practical challenges such as managing AI use cases, tracking inventories, and ensuring conformity assessments in the Software Development Life Cycle will be addressed.

The EU AI Act in Focus: Ecosystem-Wide Strategies for Responsible AI’ with Archer and EY

Managing compliance in today’s increasingly complex regulatory environment is more challenging than ever. Traditional compliance methods can’t keep up with the growing number of regulatory requirements or the need to manage regulations across multiple jurisdictions. 

 AI is transforming compliance management by reducing manual tasks, reducing errors, minimizing risk and effort, and giving compliance teams more time to focus on strategic governance. 

Watch this webcast to learn: 

• How is the compliance landscape changing, and what it costs to keep up 

• How AI can enhance compliance teams and improve effectiveness. 

• The real results and return on investment you will see from using AI in your compliance management program.

How RegTech & AI is Redefining Regulatory Technology

Part 2 of "From Compliance to Confidence: Elevating the Strategic Impact of Third-Party Risk Management." 

Leaders from Archer and Shared Assessments will share insights on how third-party risk management (TPRM) can drive a resilient business model. TPRM is often perceived as a checkbox exercise driven by regulatory requirements and internal protocols. Organizations may view it as an important risk and compliance function but often allocate just enough attention and resources to keep it running.

Yet TPRM holds far more potential when we move beyond the standard approach. When fully leveraged, it becomes a powerful tool for shaping strategic decisions and enhancing long-term performance. It can reveal critical insights into the value chain, highlight emerging risks, and uncover opportunities for growth and innovation.

Watch now to learn about:
• The need to expand TPRM programs beyond basic compliance requirements.
• The strategic advantages of integrating TPRM into enterprise risk management and long-term planning.
• Improved decision-making and stronger operational risk management enabled by unlocking the potential of a comprehensive TPRM approach.

Navigating the ESG Landscape: Legislation, Principles, and Practical Solutions

Sustainability is increasingly recognized as a pivotal element in gaining a competitive edge rather than just fulfilling regulatory requirements. As consumers, investors, and regulators demand more sustainable practices, the pressure is on businesses to adapt and leverage sustainability for long-term value creation and efficient risk management.

Effectively managing sustainability-related challenges can propel organizations toward significant competitive advantages. Integrating sustainability into core business strategies can enhance financial performance. The role of enterprise risk management (ERM) frameworks in implementing these strategies allows organizations to transform potential risks into substantial opportunities.

Cyberattacks, along with operational failures and natural disasters, continue to be among the biggest corporate risks. Companies should also place great value in 2024 on strengthening their business continuity management, identifying vulnerabilities in the supply chain, and looking for alternative suppliers.
 
Regulatory authorities in the EU require companies within DORA or NIS2 to carefully examine their business partners and assess their resilience to cyberattacks, as such incidents can affect the entire supply chain.
 
Prudent management of third-party risks is more necessary today than ever. In this webinar, we will discuss how efficient risk management for third parties can be established to keep an eye on risks posed by service providers, limit potential cyber incidents, and secure business operations. 

Using live demos in Archer, we show how third-party risk management can be set up and efficiently managed not only in theory but also in practice.
