We're interested!

We are interested, I am an NLP engineer at a RegTech startup. Interesting topics I think are open data, language corpora, language models, vocabularies, ontologies, data pipelines in regulation and compliance.

Please do include me in this too - many thanks

Great stuff - amazing to see initial interest, please keep it coming. On a related note, see input from the Community on the naming of this strategic initative - #47 (comment).

Might be one element for this SIG to decide upon, if and once created.

Really interested in this initiative on behalf of JPMorgan. Last year we worked with Tosha on some ideas for LATAM Payments reporting for regulators which showed just the tip of the iceberg in opportunities.

I am very interested in participating in this initiative on behalf of CapOne. I've been in touch with David and am looking forward to initiating "regulation as code" initiatives and learning how to innovate in the field of compliance

Interested to be part of and contribute to this initiative.

Regulation matters, enabling safer and fairer markets is important to us all. However the global complexities of embedding regulation across the ecosystem is no easy task. Technologies and Innovation are presenting us new opportunities to rethink the way we achieve compliance.

I am excited to work alongside industry experts and knowledge seekers to openly learn, share and progress under a everyday movement the way in which we manage regulation.

definitely interested in this initiative

We are very interested as well.

I am interested in this initiative on behalf of Waymark Tech

I am interested in this idea on behalf of REGnosys

I am interested to be part of this initiative.
David and Gab, thanks for proposing this initiative. It is very relevant and timely as I believe most financial institutions have been witnessing an increase in their regulatory compliance cost year on year. I very much look forward to working alongside industry experts and peer group that is passionate about open innovation in finance sector.
Ian has so rightly expressed that innovation mindset and technology presents us an opportunity to promote open source in regulatory compliance specs & implementations across a complex ecosystem.
