The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) has issued a directive urging regulated entities to embrace technology for the augmentation of their internal compliance monitoring systems. This move is in line with the central bank's ongoing efforts to modernize and strengthen the regulatory framework within the financial sector.

Regulated entities, including banks and financial institutions, have been instructed by the RBI to leverage advanced technological solutions to bolster the effectiveness of their internal compliance mechanisms. The deadline for implementation has been set for June 30, 2024, emphasizing the urgency and importance of adopting these enhancements.

By mandating the integration of technology, the RBI seeks to create a more dynamic and responsive regulatory environment, ensuring that financial entities are equipped to address emerging challenges effectively. The deadline provides a clear timeline for entities to align their operations with the technological advancements prescribed by the RBI, marking a significant step towards a more technologically resilient financial sector in India.
