Why RegWatch

Audit plans must evolve as risks and requirements change.

Internal audit leaders need timely context to reassess the audit universe, update criteria, plan engagements and monitor management action.

Too many sources to follow

Updates may appear across regulators, standards bodies, supervisory agencies, enforcement releases and professional audit organizations.

Cross-functional impact

Changes can affect audit plans, risk assessments, engagement criteria, control testing, evidence, findings and follow-up at the same time.

Policies and processes can drift

Teams need a repeatable way to connect selected requirements with internal audit methodology, engagement planning, evidence, issue tracking and quality-assurance procedures.

Alerts need context and ownership

Reviewers need the source, dates, affected topics, responsible owners and a documented next step.

Monitoring Coverage

Build a watchlist around internal audit responsibilities.

Select the sources, jurisdictions and topics that matter to your organization. Expand or refine coverage as responsibilities change.

01

Internal audit standards

Global Internal Audit Standards, topical requirements and selected professional guidance.

02

Regulatory examination criteria

Supervisory manuals, examination priorities, audit protocols and regulator expectations.

03

Control and reporting requirements

Changes affecting internal controls, governance, evidence, certifications and management reporting.

04

Technology and cybersecurity audit

Cybersecurity, privacy, cloud, resilience, AI and technology-control developments.

05

Industry and operational requirements

Sector-specific regulations and standards that may change audit scope or criteria.

06

Findings and remediation oversight

Requirements affecting issue classification, action plans, validation, escalation and closure evidence.

Monitor availability and applicability vary by source, jurisdiction and organization. Your team chooses the watchlist it wants RegWatch to follow.

Talk to Allgress
Does RegWatch determine what internal audit must test?

No. RegWatch organizes selected regulatory and standards developments that may inform audit planning and criteria. The chief audit executive and audit team retain responsibility for the risk assessment, audit plan, scope and professional judgment.

Can we use RegWatch without uploading policies?

Yes. Regulatory monitoring and change review can be used without policy uploads. Uploading and assigning policies is optional and enables policy assessment workflows.

Can we organize monitoring by jurisdiction, business unit or responsibility?

Yes. Teams can build watchlists around the jurisdictions, entities, locations, products, services and responsibilities that matter to the organization.

How does policy assessment work?

Teams may upload and assign internal audit methodology, engagement planning, evidence, issue tracking and quality-assurance procedures to selected monitors. When a source changes, RegWatch can identify areas that may require review, clarification or remediation.

Does RegWatch determine legal applicability or replace professional advice?

No. RegWatch provides regulatory intelligence and workflow support. Your organization remains responsible for selecting sources, determining applicability and obtaining legal or professional advice where needed.
