preparedness in a shifting US regulatory landscape as organisations struggle with deadlines, cost, and technology. In an environment of rapidly evolving regulations, driven by legislative and policy shifts at the federal and state levels, the US regulatory landscape is marked by complexity and uncertainty. Understanding the level of preparedness across industries is crucial for ensuring compliance, mitigating risk, and enhancing operational efficiency. This survey was conducted at the beginning of 2025, gathering financial services industry sentiment as the Trump Administration took office and began pivoting on key regulatory elements. With the US financial regulation regime also somewhat in limbo, that uncertainty was – and is – increasingly impacting the views of the 200 organisations surveyed. Analysis of our survey responses provides a comprehensive overview of the state of regulation readiness in the US, differences in reporting obligations, the impacts of automation for compliance, the roles of technology and data, and industry plans for modernisation. We explore: Which regulations will have the biggest impact on US financial services in 2025; Regulatory effects on organisational frameworks, budgets and staffing; How organisations are leveraging technology and partnerships to streamline regulatory compliance. </p> <p class="card-baseline"> <time class="card-timestamp card-icon calendar" datetime="2025-03-26 00:00:00Z">26 March 2025</time> <span class="card-icon download">103 downloads</span> </p> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> <div class="col-12 col-md-4"> <div class="card card--article card-fullWidth"> <div class="row"> <div class="col-12 card-img-container"> <a href="/researcharticle/336/using-modern-technology-platforms-to-create-an-ai-driven-bank" arial-label="Download report: Using modern technology platforms to create an AI-driven bank" > <img src="/finextra-images/top_pics/xl/red-hat-paper-05032025-hp.jpg" loading="lazy" class="card-img" alt="Using modern technology platforms to create an AI-driven bank" /> </a> </div> <div class="col-12 card-body-container"> <div class="card-body"> <p class="card-tag card-tag-light card-tag-report-type">Event Report</p> <h3 class="card-title h4"> <a id="ctl00_ctl00_body_bodyLevel_LatestResearch_rItems_ctl01_hypHeadline" rel="nofollow" aria-label="Read article: Using modern technology platforms to create an AI-driven bank" href="/researcharticle/336/using-modern-technology-platforms-to-create-an-ai-driven-bank">Using modern technology platforms to create an AI-driven bank</a> </h3> <p class="card-text"> In the rapidly advancing banking sector, integrating Artificial Intelligence (AI) has become less of a choice and more of a crucial stepping stone. The industry is facing a turning point in the adoption of AI where organisations either embrace the opportunities in front of them or risk falling behind.  The rise of artificial intelligence (AI) has ushered in a new era of digital transformation. In banking operations, the integration of AI presents an opportunity for significant growth. However, this integration is not without its challenges. Banks are dealing with more data than ever before, and managing this information effectively is a crucial hurdle to overcome. From ensuring data accuracy and relevance to adhering to privacy regulations, these challenges require careful consideration.  The decision to incorporate AI should be a strategic one, aimed at addressing specific business challenges and not just a nod to the latest trend. Identifying growth-inhibiting challenges and evaluating the viability of AI as a solution is a practical and cost-effective approach.  This report highlights the key takeaways of a Finextra webinar, hosted in association with Red Hat, by a panel of industry experts. Discover:  Overcoming barriers in integrating AI into banking systems;  AI integration: A strategic approach; and  Effective utilisation of AI in business operations and risk mitigation.    </p> <p class="card-baseline"> <time class="card-timestamp card-icon calendar" datetime="2025-03-05 00:00:00Z">05 March 2025</time> <span class="card-icon download">297 downloads</span> </p> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> <div class="col-12 col-md-4"> <div class="card card--article card-fullWidth"> <div class="row"> <div class="col-12 card-img-container"> <a href="/researcharticle/335/the-us-instant-payments-landscape-navigating-growth-and-challenges" arial-label="Download report: The US Instant Payments Landscape: Navigating Growth and Challenges" > <img src="/finextra-images/top_pics/xl/finextra-paper-28022025-hp.jpg" loading="lazy" class="card-img" alt="The US Instant Payments Landscape: Navigating Growth and Challenges" /> </a> </div> <div class="col-12 card-body-container"> <div class="card-body"> <p class="card-tag card-tag-light card-tag-report-type">Event Report</p> <h3 class="card-title h4"> <a id="ctl00_ctl00_body_bodyLevel_LatestResearch_rItems_ctl02_hypHeadline" rel="nofollow" aria-label="Read article: The US Instant Payments Landscape: Navigating Growth and Challenges" href="/researcharticle/335/the-us-instant-payments-landscape-navigating-growth-and-challenges">The US Instant Payments Landscape: Navigating Growth and Challenges</a> </h3> <p class="card-text"> The increasing demand for instant payment solutions is a key trend driving the adoption of faster payments. This webinar report explores what is holding instant payments back in the US.  In the US, real-time payments (RTP) have grown significantly since The Clearing House introduced them in 2017. Currently, the RTP network covers approximately 70% of customer accounts in the US, with transaction volumes and values rising dramatically. The Federal Reserve’s FedNow service, launched in mid-2023, has also contributed to this growth, processing a substantial number of payments in its initial quarters. These networks provide low-cost, efficient payment solutions that are gaining popularity for both consumer and business transactions.  Despite this progress, challenges remain in the adoption of faster payments. Interoperability between different payment systems and networks is a primary issue. While domestic instant payments are becoming more common, cross-border instant payments face obstacles due to the complexity of multi-currency transactions and varying regulations across countries. Additionally, the regulatory environment in the US does not mandate the adoption of faster payments, which can slow down the pace of implementation compared to other markets with regulatory mandates.  This report highlights the key takeaways of a Finextra webinar, hosted for the PREDICT 2025 campaign, by a panel of industry experts. It aims to answer:  What is holding Faster Payments back in the US and how much progress can be attributed to open banking and the ISO 20022 standard? Which applications of Faster Payments in the UK are transferrable to the US? With RtP and FedNow, how much choice is too much choice?
