WASHINGTON, DC, UNITED STATES, March 26, 2025 /
EINPresswire.com/ -- The Alliance for Innovative Regulation (AIR) spotlighted a potential paradigm shift in financial regulation in recently released intellectual capital, and announced an inaugural Converge conference to harness the unprecedented change for positive outcomes.
Financial regulation is on the brink of a transformative shift as a new, tech-driven model of regulatory oversight promises to revolutionize how financial markets are monitored and governed. Jo Ann Barefoot, CEO and Co-founder of AIR, highlights the forces driving this shift in her recent commentary,
Regulation 2.0: The Dawn of Tech-Driven Financial Regulation. In her analysis, Barefoot identifies six key factors converging to create an ideal environment for profound change, including advancements in generative AI, increased regulatory tech adoption, and the evolving role of financial regulators. According to Barefoot, this new paradigm could provide regulators with unprecedented access to real-time data, transforming financial oversight and improving outcomes for both the industry and consumers.
“Regulation 2.0 has the potential to completely reshape how we oversee financial markets, giving regulators the tools they need to make more informed decisions,” says Barefoot. “This shift will address long-standing challenges, all while ensuring the protection of consumers and markets.”
Barefoot also delved into the topic in her recent
Barefoot Innovation Podcast episode, where she outlined how technology can help move us beyond the limitations of current regulatory frameworks and towards a more efficient, data-driven model.
