Finelevate has published the first edition of Digital Compliance Radar, a periodic regulatory intelligence report designed to help financial institutions and digital solution providers track regulatory changes that may affect digital transformation, compliance, technology, and product development.
The report is intended for compliance, legal, technical, product, and management teams in banks, insurance companies, fintechs, financial institutions, as well as product and service companies delivering digital solutions to the financial sector.
Digital Compliance Radar – Edition #1 provides a structured overview of selected regulatory developments relevant to digital identity, trust services, personal data protection, artificial intelligence, digital channels, electronic documents, electronic commerce, and broader digital transformation.
This first edition follows developments across three perspectives: the European Union, regional initiatives, and specific regulatory changes in North Macedonia.
Among the key topics covered in the first edition are proposed amendments related to the one-stop-shop system, the Trade Register and other legal entity registers, including alignment with EU rules on the use of digital tools and processes in company law. The report also highlights upcoming legislative activity related to the protection of personal data in the context of prevention, investigation, detection or prosecution of criminal offences.
The edition also tracks proposed changes in civil procedure, including digitalisation of court processes, use of electronic documents, electronic delivery, qualified electronic signatures and remote hearings. In addition, it covers regional developments related to CEFTA, including electronic commerce facilitation and the recognition of advanced electronic signatures, advanced electronic seals and qualified trust services across the region.
At EU level, the report includes updates related to the AI Omnibus initiative and the European Commission’s draft guidelines for the classification of high-risk artificial intelligence systems under the AI Act. These developments are particularly relevant for organisations developing, implementing or using AI systems in financial services, insurance, employment, education, healthcare and public sector decision-making.
The purpose of Digital Compliance Radar is to help institutions identify upcoming obligations early, understand their potential business, compliance and technology impact, and prepare in time for changes that may influence the design, implementation and future use of digital solutions.
The report is prepared as an informational overview based on publicly available information published by competent authorities and institutions. It is not a substitute for legal or expert advice, but serves as a structured radar for regulatory developments connected to digital transformation.
Finelevate will continue to publish Digital Compliance Radar periodically, with the aim of supporting earlier preparation, better decision-making and stronger alignment between regulation, technology and business strategy in the financial sector.
