Anonymized case study

Translating EU rules into requirements IT could build

Context Financial institution (Europe) | Regulation and IT operationalization
Duration 6 months
Scope EU taxonomy and the climate risk analysis required by law at the time

Starting point

Taxonomy- and disclosure-related requirements had to be translated into existing data and process landscapes.

Target picture

From the regulatory requirement to something IT can build and the business side can check.

Approach

  1. Translated regulatory expectations into data fields, validation logic, and process steps.
  2. Aligned interpretation and responsibilities across all functions involved.
  3. Ordered the implementation in a backlog that respects the dependencies.

Result

  • Fewer arguments over interpretation, because rules and documentation were fixed.
  • IT could build, because the requirements were prioritised and testable.

Lessons

  • Regulatory implementation is only as good as the translation into data fields and process steps. The text of the rule alone does not help IT.
