    At the Sydney Finance Magnates Pacific Summit, Simon Sheridan from Forex Live interviewed Deborah Young, CEO of the RegTech Association. Deborah explained the association's mission to accelerate the adoption of regulatory technology (RegTech) globally. She discussed recent work with European central banks on suptech (supervisory technology), which helps regulators solve internal monitoring and compliance challenges.

    Deborah also highlighted improvements in procurement processes within RegTech, noting that sales cycles have shortened, benefiting regulators, institutions, and investors. She emphasized the crucial role of RegTech in ensuring compliance in financial services, especially around digital identity, financial crime, and cybersecurity.

    Jakarta, September 19, 2024 - Amid rapid technological advancements, Hukumonline has officially launched Ask Hukumonline AI, Indonesia's first generative AI platform designed to streamline legal research. This innovation represents a major leap forward in harnessing artificial intelligence (AI) technology to deliver faster, more accurate, and efficient legal solutions.

    "Change is a necessity, and AI technology serves as the key to creating efficiency across various industries, including law," said Hukumonline Chief Executive Officer Arkka Dhiratara in his remarks at the launch of Ask Hukumonline AI. He stated that Ask Hukumonline AI speeds up the research process and provides more comprehensive and user-friendly answers for its users, including legal practitioners, academics, and professionals.

    It began in 2017 when Hukumonline developed Advance Search as a quick search feature. Then, in 2018, Hukumonline launched the Legal Intelligence Assistant, the first legal chatbot in Indonesia. Over time, in 2020, Hukumonline advanced its AI technology for the Regulatory Compliance System, a legal compliance monitoring system for companies and other institutions.

    By 2023, Hukumonline introduced the precursor to Ask Hukumonline AI through early iterations of Generative AI applied to Hukumonline’s knowledge base. Ask Hukumonline AI then underwent testing and validation, followed by tryouts for the bar exam and Capital Market Law exam questions. As a result, Ask Hukumonline AI passed these exams.

    Ask Hukumonline AI was also tested by several experts and eventually refined, leading to its official release today.

    Through Ask Hukumonline AI, users can ask complex legal questions and receive answers within seconds, speeding up the research process that has traditionally consumed both time and effort. Ask Hukumonline AI serves as a solution to the challenges of legal research in Indonesia, which is often hindered by time constraints and the need to manually sort through vast amounts of information.

    "We believe the launch of Ask Hukumonline AI is a significant leap in legal research in Indonesia," added Arkka. He also stated that this platform is a manifestation of Hukumonline's commitment to continuously innovate and provide relevant services for its users.

    While AI offers exceptional efficiency, Arkka stressed that the best outcomes are still achieved through the collaboration between technology and human expertise. Hukumonline ensures that Ask Hukumonline AI serves as a tool to enhance, not replace, the human experience.

    With this launch, Hukumonline reinforces its position as a pioneer of legal innovation in Indonesia. Looking ahead, Hukumonline remains committed to delivering technology-driven solutions that address the ever-evolving demands of the legal industry.

    Sydney, Australia – 2 September 2024 – With losses attributed to scams exceeding $160 million in Australia this year alone, there are 160 million reasons why addressing this scourge is imperative. These losses impact large corporations, small businesses, families, and individuals alike, fostering elevated feelings of vulnerability and uncertainty even in legitimate commercial transactions. The emotional toll is significant, with many scams going unreported due to embarrassment. The proliferation of mobile devices has given scammers widespread access through phone, text, and email – the most common forms of communication used by scammers.

    In response to this growing threat, The RegTech Association has teamed up with National Australia Bank (NAB) to launch the Global Anti-Scam Challenge. This program invites applications from start-up companies worldwide to address three primary problem statements, culminating in nine finalists presenting at the virtual grand finale in October 2024.

    Deborah Young, CEO of The RegTech Association, stated, “While education is often the best defense, we can also help stop scams by meeting the scammers with even smarter technology. This program supports our Association’s goals to protect people and aims to attract a wide variety of RegTech and Tech companies from around the world to show us how they can approach Data Sharing, Scam Detection, and Emerging Threats. The reward will be to be assessed by a cross-functional expert panel from NAB, and for those selected, the opportunity to present at the grand finale in October. We invite everyone with a mature solution to apply. It’s incumbent upon us all to lean in, collaborate, and stop the scams.”

    In today’s world, regulatory measures are deeply integrated into the life cycle of all financial institutions, be it in insurance, banking, or asset management.

    The UK has long been recognised as a global thought leader in financial regulation, so it is no surprise that both the Financial Conduct Authority and the Bank of England have been proactive in their approach to technological innovation.

    The City of London Corporation's new report 'UK Regtech | Success Stories', authored by Dr Sian Lewin, showcases the benefits of RegTech by presenting successful examples of implementation which have helped UK firms to cut compliance costs, be more efficient, and save time and resources.

    RegTech adoption can enhance the competitiveness of the UK financial services sector and make it a safer and stronger place to do business.
