Emerging Regulation & Market Impact
Early positioning on the regulation that will define the next licensing and product cycle.
- EU AI Act
- Cybersecurity Act
- MiCAR
- DORA
- NIS2

See the next regime before it binds you.
Overview
What the engagement covers.
The regulatory perimeter is expanding faster than most compliance functions can absorb. Artificial intelligence, crypto-asset services, cybersecurity certification and third-party concentration risk are all now in scope for financial institutions.
We help firms determine exposure before deadlines force it: which AI systems fall into which EU AI Act risk tier, whether a service triggers MiCAR authorisation, and how the Cybersecurity Act certification schemes affect procurement.
The output is a horizon plan — what is changing, when it binds, what it costs, and which product or market decisions should be taken now rather than under deadline pressure.
Deliverables
- Regulatory horizon scan tailored to your licences, products and markets
- EU AI Act inventory, risk classification and governance requirements
- MiCAR and crypto-asset service applicability assessment
- Third-party and concentration risk review across critical providers
- Board paper setting out strategic options, cost and timing
Outcomes
- No surprise obligations at the point a regulation applies
- Product and market decisions informed by regulatory cost
- A credible position when supervisors ask about AI and third-party risk
