Project Team Results Conference 2024

About the Project

Our Vision: Reworking the reporting infrastructure.

We see a paradigm shift for financial regulation with:

Timeliness, flexibility, transparency, comparability
Improved adaptability to new situations
Realistic systemic analysis
Enhances regulators’ ability to mitigate adverse events

This will have an impact on the financial system and society:

Financial institutions: Lower operations costs, better understanding of risks, freeing up resources for strategic tasks
The financial system: More resilient, more efficient
The real economy will profit from a more stable financial system
“Society at large”: Improve financial market transparency & level the playing field between buyers and sellers
Strengthening the role of Switzerland in FinTech
Provides the foundation of a future digital financial infrastructure

2nd International Workshop on Automated Regulatory Financial Reporting 2024

1st International Workshop on Automated Regulatory Financial Reporting

29. September 2022

Currently, ZHAW, HSLU and University of Zurich in close collaboration with interested parties from the industry and funded by the SNCF-Bridge scheme are pursuing the vision of a system for automated regulatory financial reporting that uses financial contract-level data combined with market data to automatically produce the analyses required for internal and external oversight.

The workshop aims at presenting details of the project as well advantages from the point of view of different stakeholders (regulators, financial institutions, technology providers, standard-setting bodies). Our objective is to start a conversation among those stakeholders and create an impact on their vision.

The workshop will take place a day after the 7th European Conference on AI in Industry and Finance in Switzerland
