TAINA's Subject Matter Expert, Sean Sutton and 10 other RegTech experts share their insights on how Regulatory Technology is helping SMEs with their regulatory challenges. Sean Sutton, SME at TAINA Technology Limited explains, “Internal Subject Matter Experts at these firms tend to support many back, middle, and front office functions and often lack the bandwidth to manually manage growing compliance demands; they face the challenge of ensuring their firm remains compliant, while juggling other advisory tasks. RegTech has become a vital tool in easing the regulatory workload for SMEs.” Article: https://hubs.li/Q02Sk0st0 #TAINA #RegTech #SME #FinTech #SubjectMatterExpert

🔍 𝗕𝘂𝗶𝗹𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗧𝗿𝘂𝘀𝘁 𝗧𝗵𝗿𝗼𝘂𝗴𝗵 𝗦𝘁𝗿𝗼𝗻𝗴 𝗗𝗮𝘁𝗮 𝗣𝗿𝗮𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗰𝗲𝘀: 𝗜𝗻𝘀𝗶𝗴𝗵𝘁𝘀 𝗳𝗿𝗼𝗺 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗦𝗙𝗔 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗣𝗗𝗣𝗖 𝗪𝗲𝗯𝗶𝗻𝗮𝗿 𝗦𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗲𝘀 🚀 In today's fast-evolving digital economy, trust is the cornerstone of success. Over the past few months, I had the privilege of attending a transformative 3-part webinar series jointly organised by the Singapore FinTech Association (SFA) and the Personal Data Protection Commission (PDPC). The series focused on enhancing business competitiveness by building strong data practices. As businesses continue to innovate and grow, the challenge of maintaining trust among stakeholders — customers, investors, regulators, and employees — becomes increasingly complex. The webinars highlighted the urgent need for robust data practices to address concerns about data privacy, security, and compliance. The task of integrating these practices into existing business models can seem daunting. A key takeaway from the series was the pivotal role that strong data practices play in fostering trust. From understanding the latest regulatory frameworks to implementing cutting-edge data security measures, the webinars provided a comprehensive roadmap for businesses. Real-world case studies illustrated how organisations have successfully navigated these challenges, leading to enhanced trust and business resilience. The webinars emphasised actionable strategies for building a culture of trust through transparency and accountability. By adopting best practices in data governance and protection, businesses can not only comply with regulations but also drive innovation and gain a competitive edge. The insights gained have reinforced my belief that trust is indeed today’s ultimate business enabler. As we move forward, it's imperative for organisations, regardless of size or industry, to prioritise strong data practices. By doing so, we can build trust with our stakeholders, innovate boldly, and grow responsibly. I encourage everyone to leverage the knowledge shared in this invaluable webinar series and take proactive steps towards strengthening your data practices. Together, we can shape a trustworthy and resilient digital economy. #Fintech #DataPrivacy #DataSecurity #Trust #Innovation #Singapore #SFA #PDPC #DigitalEconomy #BusinessCompetitiveness #WebinarInsights
