Horizon scanning

See what changed. Know what it means for you.

RegNext horizon scanning follows what regulators and authorities publish — rules, consultations, enforcement actions, speeches and bills. Each update is summarised, classified and scored for your organisation, so your team spends its time on the changes that concern it.

How it works

From everything published to what concerns you.

The feed your team opens is already read, sorted and explained.

Follow

Publications from regulators and authorities: rules, consultations, enforcement actions, speeches and bills.

Summarise

Each update gets an executive summary, with its jurisdiction, authority, type, topics and dates.

Rank

Scored for your organisation — what needs action, what is relevant, what is due soon — with the reasons.

Act

Turn an update into a task with an owner and a due date, mark it reviewed, or dismiss it.

Monitors

Say what you follow, in your own words.

Describe it as you would to a colleague — “French and EU rules on payments and anti-money laundering that affect retail banks”. James turns it into filters you review, then keeps watch.

Review before you saveJurisdictions, regulators, types of firm and topics become filters you keep or remove.
Alerts by emailDaily or weekly, with only what is new since the last alert.
One view for the teamShare a monitor and everyone follows the same scope.
To a shared mailboxSend alerts to a team address rather than a personal one.

Briefing

A briefing, not a pile of links.

Each monitor opens on a short briefing: what happened, why it matters and what is coming — every point linked to the update it comes from.

What needs actionThe high-priority updates, counted up front.
Why each one mattersRecent updates, with what they change and what to do.
What is comingThe dates and entries into force ahead.

Questions

Questions about horizon scanning.

What is regulatory horizon scanning?

Keeping watch on what regulators and authorities publish — rules, consultations, enforcement actions, speeches and bills — so you see a change coming and know whether it concerns you. RegNext summarises, dates and scores each update for your organisation, so your team starts from what matters.

How does RegNext decide what is relevant to us?

You describe what you follow in your own words, and James turns it into filters — jurisdictions, regulators, types of firm and topics — that you review before saving. Each update is then ranked: what needs action, what is relevant, what is due soon, with the reasons. Your team can correct a score.

How do briefings and alerts work?

Each monitor opens on a short briefing: what happened, why it matters and what is coming, every point linked to its update. Alerts arrive by email, daily or weekly, with only what is new since the last one — to you or to a shared team mailbox.

Can we check where a summary comes from?

Yes. Every update links to the original publication. When you ask James a question, each claim in the answer is numbered and linked to the update behind it.

What happens once an update concerns us?

Turn it into a task with an owner and a due date, mark it reviewed or dismiss it. Deadlines and entries into force line up in the regulatory calendar, and any filtered list exports to Excel.
