This report is intended to identify the ‘DNA of Regulations’ in the context of enterprise digital transformation. It does not focus on regulations that may be in force in any single country, but rather seeks to identify a long list of key aspects of different regulations that are in force around the world.
The report draws on an extensive review of regulations that are currently in-force (or planned) around the world and that may apply to digitally transformative solutions. We analysed relevant regulations to identify key themes, which we document in this report along with specific examples.
Transforma Insights ‘DNA of Regulations’ framework is set out in the figure below. The framework includes a three-level hierarchy consisting of mostly technology groups, intermediate groups of specific aspects, and the identified regulatory aspects themselves.
For any potential vendor or service provider considering selling, or supporting, solutions that rely on new and emerging technologies this report provides a checklist of the aspects of solutions that might be regulated in any given market and serves as an input to a full regulatory analysis that must be undertaken before entering a specific market.
This report can be read in association with the Transforma Insights Regulatory Database which includes analysis of regulations using the ‘DNA of Regulations’ framework as defined in this document. The Regulatory Database includes analysis both of specific regulations and of the regulatory environment in specific countries and allows for comparison of regulations across different geographies.
