The first decade of the 21st century will be remembered, at least in part, as one of the most complex regulatory periods in U.S. business history. IT departments have had to address the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, the USA PATRIOT Act and many others. As we begin to sort through the implications of the recent financial crisis, expect more to follow. Some changes to financial oversight rules are already in the works.

For your clients, this means IT changes to address new regulations may become an ongoing effort: essentially, there will always be a new reg to consider. This, of course, comes on top of managing existing compliance frameworks. As the complexity of this environment accumulates, your clients will want to know they are partnering with a solution provider that has the technology knowledge to complement their compliance programs.

Does this mean you will need to become a compliance guru: No.

Does this mean you will need to know which solutions are best-suited to your clients’ needs? Absolutely.
