Regulatory Reporting & Change Management
Produce your returns, and keep up with the rules that shape them
Regulated firms have to do two things at once: produce accurate regulatory returns from their programme, and keep pace with regulation that never stops changing. This programme composes regulatory reporting, regulatory change management and a regulatory knowledge base into one function, so returns are assembled from the same record the work was done on, and rule changes are captured, assessed and driven through to updated policies and controls.
One programme, on one platform
Your compliance, risk and legal teams run the programme in OnyxOne, which composes the relevant modules onto one record and connects to the systems and data sources your deployment requires.
What this programme is, and why it matters
A solution is a programme, not a single tool — the outcome a set of platform capabilities add up to when they run on one record.
How accountability is structured across the first line, risk and compliance, and independent assurance — the model the programme supports.
Reporting from the source, not a rebuild
Returns and reports are assembled from the same record where screening, cases, risk and controls were operated — so reporting is a view of the work, not a separate data-gathering project prone to transcription error.
Change, tracked from signal to control
The programme captures regulatory developments, assesses their impact on the firm's obligations, policies and controls, and drives the resulting changes to completion — so nothing falls between spotting a rule change and actually implementing it.
A living map of obligations
A regulatory knowledge base holds the firm's obligations and links them to the policies and controls that meet them, so when a rule changes, the firm can see exactly what it touches rather than guessing at the blast radius.
Accountability across the change
Impact assessments, decisions and implementation actions carry owners, deadlines and sign-off, so regulatory change is governed with the same discipline as the rest of the programme — and the response is evidenced.
What makes this hard today
The operational realities this programme is designed to resolve.
Returns rebuilt by hand
Assembling reports by exporting and re-keying from multiple systems is slow and introduces exactly the errors a return must not carry.
Change spotted but not implemented
A rule change noticed in a newsletter that never becomes an updated policy or control is a gap waiting to be found in a review.
No map from rule to control
Without linked obligations, a firm cannot tell what a regulatory change actually affects, so impact assessment is guesswork.
Reporting divorced from the work
When the reporting system is separate from where the work happens, the return can drift from the underlying reality.
Change without accountability
Impact assessments and implementation actions tracked loosely lose owners and deadlines, so the response is partial and undocumented.
The operating model, at a glance
How the composed programme runs — from the data it takes in to the decisions and evidence it produces.
Work is triaged, escalated when it matters, and recorded either way — every path lands on the audit trail.
Map obligations
Capture the firm's obligations in the knowledge base and link them to the policies and controls that meet them.
Assemble returns
Build regulatory returns and reports from the same record the underlying work was operated on.
Capture change
Log regulatory developments and route them for impact assessment against the mapped obligations.
Assess & assign
Assess each change's impact on policies and controls, and assign implementation actions with owners and deadlines.
Implement & evidence
Drive changes through to updated policies and controls, with sign-off and the response evidenced in the audit trail.
The modules this solution composes
A solution is a curated set of platform modules working as one programme. Turn on what the programme needs and add more as it scales.
What the programme gives you
The concrete capabilities the composed programme provides, end to end.
Regulatory reporting
Assemble returns and reports from the same record the work was operated on, exported in the formats your submission channels require.
Obligations knowledge base
Hold the firm's obligations and link each to the policies and controls that meet it, so coverage is visible.
Regulatory change capture
Log regulatory developments in one place and route them for structured impact assessment.
Impact assessment
Assess how a change affects obligations, policies and controls, using the mapped links to see exactly what it touches.
Change implementation
Assign and track implementation actions with owners and deadlines through to updated policies and controls.
Reporting & MI
Give management and the board a current view of reporting status and the pipeline of regulatory change.
The end-to-end workflow
A defined process with clear ownership at every stage, captured against the record it belongs to.
Every result, decision and override is captured against the record it belongs to.
Map
Obligations are captured and linked to the policies and controls that satisfy them.
Report
Regulatory returns are assembled from the underlying record and prepared for submission.
Capture
A regulatory development is logged and routed for assessment.
Assess
Its impact on obligations, policies and controls is assessed using the mapped links.
Implement
Implementation actions are assigned with owners and deadlines and driven to completion.
Evidence
Updated policies and controls are signed off, and the whole response is preserved in the audit trail.
Industries this programme serves
The sectors this programme is most often deployed in. The same programme, framed around each sector's obligations.
Works with your existing systems
Described as capabilities — OnyxOne connects to the systems the programme requires, configured per implementation.
- Exports returns and report content in the formats your submission channels require
- Ingests regulatory developments from the horizon-scanning or content feeds your deployment uses
- Links obligations to the policies and controls managed in the governance programme
- Draws reportable data from the same records where screening, cases, risk and controls were operated
- Routes impact assessments, change actions and approvals through your existing email and messaging tools
Security & reporting
Security & data handling
- Reporting data, obligations and change records are encrypted in transit and at rest.
- Access to reporting and change management is role-based.
- Every return, impact assessment, change action and approval is written to an append-only audit trail.
- Obligation-to-control mappings are versioned so the firm can show what coverage looked like at any point in time.
- Data residency and retention are configurable to your obligations.
Reports & returns
- Regulatory returns and report content in your required formats
- Reporting status and submission-readiness reporting
- Regulatory change pipeline and impact-assessment reporting
- Obligation-to-control coverage reporting
- Executive and board regulatory management information
What your team gains
Accurate returns, less effort
Assembling reports from the source record removes re-keying and the errors it introduces.
No gap between rule and response
Change is tracked from the moment it is spotted through to an updated control, so nothing is left half-implemented.
Impact you can actually assess
Linked obligations show exactly what a rule change touches, turning impact assessment from guesswork into a scoped exercise.
An evidenced response
Owners, deadlines and sign-off across the change mean the firm can show how it responded, not just that it did.
Questions, answered
Where does reporting data come from?
From the same record where the work was operated — screening, cases, risk and controls. Returns are a view of that work rather than a separate data-gathering exercise, which removes re-keying and the errors it causes.
Does OnyxOne submit returns to regulators?
No. The programme assembles returns and report content in the formats your submission channels require; your firm reviews, signs off and files them. OnyxOne is a technology vendor, not an obliged entity.
How does change management connect to the rest?
Obligations are linked to the policies and controls that meet them, so when a rule changes, the programme shows exactly what it affects and drives the update through to those policies and controls with owners and deadlines.
Does OnyxOne tell us what the regulations are?
It ingests regulatory developments from the content or horizon-scanning feeds your deployment uses and helps you assess and implement them. It does not provide legal or regulatory advice, and interpretation remains with your firm.
Are SOC 2 or ISO 27001 held?
Not yet. Both are on our roadmap; we will publish attestations in the Trust Center once they are held rather than claim them beforehand.
