Intelligence-Led Regulation
Enhance your regulatory decision making and deliver better outcomes
Regulators, in their quest to become modern and effective, are increasingly drawn to an intelligence-informed regulatory approach. This approach offers numerous advantages such as efficient resource allocation, risk-focussed decision-making, proactive compliance monitoring, informed regulatory actions, improved outcomes, and the ability to shape future regulatory strategies.
The Hatchery’s 4th Annual Intelligence-Led Regulation Conference will bring together regulatory professionals, experts and best practice case studies from a wide range of jurisdictions across Australia and New Zealand. Across two days, the event will focus on practical insights from regulators on how they are leveraging intelligence to inform targeted compliance and enforcement strategies, building capability and the challenges and opportunities of an intelligence-led regulatory approach.
