Regulatory Data Handbook 2025 – Thirteenth Edition

Welcome to the thirteenth edition of A-Team Group’s Regulatory Data Handbook, a unique and practical guide to capital markets regulation, regulatory change, and the data and data management requirements of compliance across Europe, the UK, US and Asia-Pacific.

This year’s edition lands at a moment of accelerating regulatory divergence and intensifying data focused supervision. Inside, we explain what DORA’s full application means in practice, how the EU’s AML package (AMLR/AMLD6/AMLA) reshapes controls, where Basel 3.1 and FRTB timelines now stand, and what the MiFIR review, EMIR Refit/“EMIR 3.0,” and the EU AI Act mean for reporting stacks, governance and model risk controls.

We also track cross-cutting themes – cloud oversight, data localisation, digital identity – and provide an at a glance outlook on the year ahead.
