Why GRC matters more than ever
In an era of rapid technological advancements and increasing regulatory complexities, Governance, Risk, and Compliance (GRC) has become pivotal for financial institutions. Leading Chief Risk Officers (CROs) are already dealing with these continuously evolving challenges with limited resources. Cybersecurity, geopolitical tensions, and talent retention and utilization remain the top challenges.
In addition, with the introduction of new regulations—such as the Genius Act designed to improve the integrity of digital assets—financial institutions face increasing pressure to maintain strong compliance frameworks and ensure operational preparedness. Non-compliance can lead to significant regulatory penalties. Global banks paid billions in fines in 2024 alone, with US financial institutions accounting for a major share.
