Delivering Wtp transition while maintaining control and compliance

The regulatory calendar is not slowing down.

European financial institutions are simultaneously managing DORA enforcement and ECB examination, CRD VI implementation, preparation for the AML Single Rulebook ahead of its 2027 application date, second-wave CSRD reporting obligations, and the AI Act’s first high-risk deadlines from August 2026. Each programme alone is manageable. Together, they create a compounding load on second-line and operational teams that have not grown.

The challenge is no longer reading the next regulation. It is staying on top of all of them at once: maintaining a defensible compliance position across programmes that overlap, without duplicating effort across siloed teams. That is what ACE is built to help with.

ACE + Company is a specialist regulatory change practice for European financial institutions. We bring together regulatory expertise, change management discipline, and a purpose-built AI platform to help compliance and risk teams stay ahead of the most demanding regulatory agenda in a generation.

Consulting expertise and Regulatory AI, working in parallel.

Seamless and complementary capabilities to provide tangible impact.

ACE Consulting

Regulatory change expertise, from first reading to lasting BAU.

A boutique change management practice with niche regulatory expertise across the full change lifecycle. We work in behaviour, governance, controls, and stakeholder alignment. Not just gap analysis. Lean, focused teams that integrate with yours and build capability as they go.

  • Horizon scanning and pre-emergence
    Understanding new regulation before it lands, helping frame your strategic response and allocate capacity ahead of the deadline pressure.
  • Regulatory design and planning
    Designing the compliance approach and the operating model: what needs to change, who owns it, how it will be governed, and what good looks like.
  • Implementation management and orchestration
    Running complex, multi-workstream regulatory programmes with the change management discipline to keep them on track and the regulatory knowledge to keep them defensible.
  • Transition into BAU
    Building sustainable capabilities so the change holds after the project ends. Controls, governance, MI, training, and ownership designed in from day one.

Our consulting approach

ACE’s RegAI

Regulatory intelligence that reads every word and maps every obligation.

RegAI reads regulatory texts, structures binding obligations, maps them to your control framework, and monitors your compliance position as regulations change. A single integrated platform with capabilities that give your teams a living, defensible view across the regulations that matter.

  • Nexus
    A cross-regulation view organised by operational domain and topic family, not by document. The groups your team actually owns, pulled together across the regulations onboarded for your firm.
  • Posture
    Defensible coverage by regulation and domain, computed continuously from artifact-to-requirement evidence. Not a self-assessed RAG. Numbers your board and your supervisor can both rely on.
  • Pulse
    Regulatory change monitoring that tells you what a new technical standard or guideline means for your specific compliance position. Not “DORA has changed.” Which specific requirements are affected, and what that means for you.
  • Workbench
    Close gaps in the same place you find them. Upload a new policy, preview the projected posture change before approving, and leave a complete audit trail.

Built by practitioners. Amplified by AI.

Most firms competing in this market are one thing: a consulting practice that treats AI as a supporting tool, or an AI platform that offers advisory as an afterthought. ACE is neither.

Our regulatory practice has spent years working alongside compliance and risk teams inside European financial institutions, structuring regulatory programmes, designing operating models, and supporting implementations that hold in the organisation after the project ends. That practice is encoded in RegAI: in the way it structures obligations, surfaces what supervisors actually scrutinise during examinations rather than just what the regulation text says, and connects requirements across regulatory domains that most tools treat as separate.

AI amplifies what practitioners know. It does not replace the judgement, the relationships, or the change management discipline that make regulatory change land.
