Customer Remediation

As our clients identify regulatory issues that require the remediation of adversely impacted customers, Protiviti assists clients with identifying the impacted customers, determining the remediation amounts and types, and communicating with and providing remediation to customers.

Credible Challenge, Testing and Validation

We assist clients across their lines of defenses with evaluating their regulatory remediation strategies and execution for consistency with applicable requirements, expectations and internal standards, and provide informed, independent perspectives to management to successfully resolve regulatory matters.

Our approach

The process to resolve regulatory issues requiring remediation is universally complex. It requires careful consideration and a clear approach and methodology to demonstrate that all relevant factors are identified and appropriately addressed. It also demands thoughtful communication with an organisation’s regulators that is not only responsive but practical in its alignment with the operational realities of resolving the issue.

Protiviti offers multiple solutions to our clients related to their regulatory remediation efforts, supported by experienced professionals that have delivered on our proven methodologies powered by data and supportive technologies, including:

Developing regulatory responses and effectively managing negotiation of regulatory actions;
Self-assessing issues to evaluate the extent of the impact and inform regulatory responses and negotiations;
Planning corrective actions, including customer remediation;
Testing controls and transactions;
Designing and providing resources to execute lookback reviews, as well as the deployment of enabling workflow-based tools;

We assist clients throughout the lifecycle of a regulatory matter, including with establishing a governance and risk management framework for managing such matters

By assisting our clients with designing and implementing well-executed governance and risk management processes, we enable our clients to capably identify, resolve, remediate, track and report issues in such a way that not only meets regulatory expectations but more broadly meets the expectations of key stakeholders, including shareholders and importantly, customers and the market.

In facilitating the planning, execution and validation of our clients’ resolution of regulatory matters, including those involving customer remediation, our experienced professionals employ practical, proven methodologies. We help our clients develop and implement regulatory remediation strategies (both simple and complex) that enables appropriate oversight of the response to and resolution of regulatory matters.

To manage the competing priorities of timeliness and thoroughness that clients often face in regulatory remediation efforts, we routinely assist s with developing and managing communications with their regulators. Leveraging the subject matter experience of our professionals, many of whom have worked as regulators previously, we provide additional perspective to our clients in the development of practical responses that meet regulatory expectations as well as manage business objectives and client experiences.

Our clients benefit also from our subject matter expertise across products, services, and processes (such as mortgage servicing, student lending, and payments), as well as with various regulatory requirements (such as BSA/AML and sanctions and fair and responsible lending), and risk management. Our professional experience is both broad and deep allowing us to provide clients with unparalleled support in managing the regulatory remediation process.
