Governance, risk and compliance for banking and finance

Banks, financial services and insurers operate in one of the most heavily regulated and digitally exposed environments in the world, with Epi Wero, GDPR and EuroPrivacy known for their uncompromising stance on data privacy.

As digital channels, open banking and third-party ecosystems expand, traditional GRC models struggle to keep pace. This increases the likelihood of regulatory failure and costly fines.

GRC in banking and finance

Identify operational, cyber and third-party risk earlier

The way we deliver GRC in banking brings governance, risk and compliance into the same flow as engineering, testing and operations. This helps to strengthen financial services risk management as the business changes.

Risks are identified early on, while systems are being designed, built and changed, not discovered during audits or incidents.
Through continuous testing, resilience validation and security assurance, we generate shared, auditable evidence that shows controls are working across platforms, suppliers and critical services.

Backed by independently audited standards and accredited services, our Total Quality approach gives boards and regulators confidence that risk is understood, managed and defensible as the business evolves.

BENEFITS

How integrated assurance delivers better outcomes

When risk and compliance in banking are embedded into delivery, banking and financial services organisations see clear benefits across compliance, resilience and regulatory confidence. Such as:

Risk and compliance in banking

Meet complex financial regulations without slowing change

Risk register

Demonstrate operational resilience, don’t just document it

WHY NOW

Decisions@2x 1
Regulatory complexity without clear oversight

 

Financial institutions face overlapping obligations across resilience, cyber security, data protection and conduct. Disconnected GRC processes make it harder to maintain visibility and produce reliable audit evidence quickly.

Operational resilience under increasing scrutiny

 

Regulators expect firms to prove critical services can withstand disruption, from cyber incidents to third-party failures. When GRC sits outside delivery, gaps are often identified too late.

Third part icon
Third-party and ecosystem risk

 

Open banking, APIs, fintech partnerships and outsourced providers increase exposure to supplier and integration risk. Firms need assurance that controls extend across the wider ecosystem, not just internal systems.

Compliance
Modernisation moving faster than governance

 

Core banking transformation, cloud migration and digital services are outpacing traditional governance models. Manual, retrospective compliance can slow delivery and create hidden risk debt.

Regulations impacting the banking and financial sector

We support BFSI organisations with GRC led assurance aligned to key financial and digital resilience regulations, including:

Digital Operational Resilience Act (DORA)

The Digital Operational Resilience Act (DORA) helps BFSI organisations strengthen resilience against cyber threats, IT outages and third-party technology failures. It provides a common framework for risk management, incident reporting, resilience testing and supplier oversight, helping firms reduce operational risk while demonstrating compliance to regulators across the EU.

NIS2

The NIS2 Directive helps BFSI organisations improve cyber resilience, governance and incident response across critical systems and supply chains. It strengthens accountability at leadership level, raises security standards and helps firms demonstrate stronger operational and cyber risk management to regulators, customers and partners.

Europrivacy (GDPR Certification – Article 42)

Europrivacy helps BFSI organisations demonstrate consistent, independently verified compliance with GDPR across complex data environments. For banks, insurers and financial services firms handling large volumes of sensitive customer and transaction data, it strengthens trust, reduces regulatory risk and provides clearer evidence of privacy governance during audits, third-party assessments and cross-border operations.
