A Global Podcast Decoding the Future of Compliance, AI, and Governance.
London – 20 October 2025
Synapses Network, in collaboration with Complia, today announced the launch of The Regulatory Files — a global podcast series decoding how regulation, technology, and governance are redefining compliance in an era of intelligent transformation.
The series blends investigative storytelling with boardroom insight to unpack how global shifts from U.S. deregulation to Europe’s rule-based reforms and Asia’s adaptive governance are reshaping the work of compliance, risk, and governance professionals worldwide.
Serving as a learning and insight platform for GRC and policy professionals, The Regulatory Files explores how regulatory evolution intersects with artificial intelligence, finance, and sustainability — helping organizations anticipate change rather than react to it.
A Three-Part Premiere: The Deregulation Series
The debut trilogy, The Deregulation Series, investigates three major frontiers of regulatory evolution:
Finance and Stability — The changing face of central bank lending, moral hazard, and resolution planning.
Intelligence and Data — The global race to govern artificial intelligence and data sovereignty.
Climate and Capital (coming soon) — The tension between sustainability ambition and economic pragmatism.
Episodes 1 (Finance and Stability) and 2 (The Deregulation of Intelligence: AI, Data & Global Competitiveness) are now live across major platforms, alongside a special feature: Inside the FCA’s AML Fine | Arian Financial LLP — an in-depth case analysis exploring lessons for financial institutions navigating enforcement and remediation.
“The Regulatory Files was born out of a simple idea that compliance isn’t about keeping pace with rules; it’s about understanding the world that creates them,” said Adetoyese Adedokun, Executive Producer and Compliance Transformation Lead at Complia.“Our partnership with Synapses brings the best of two worlds: Synapses’ forward-looking professional network and Complia’s deep regulatory expertise. Together, we’re building a forum where GRC professionals, policymakers, and innovators can engage with the forces reshaping their work — from AI ethics to climate risk.”
Hosted by Adetoyese Adedokun, with co-hosts Phoebe Banks and Alfred Frodes, the podcast combines expert interviews, regulatory analysis, and real-world case studies to make complex topics accessible, insightful, and globally relevant.
“Regulation is no longer confined to policy papers, it’s happening in real time, in data, in code, and in board decisions,” added Sarah Audrey, Manager and Strategic Lead at Synapses Network. “The Regulatory Files gives compliance officers, policymakers, and risk leaders the knowledge advantage to navigate that shift.”
A Platform for the Future of GRC
Through each episode, The Regulatory Files connects the dots between governance, emerging technologies, and societal trust empowering professionals to lead regulatory transformation with purpose and foresight.
Listeners gain insights into both regulatory intent and operational impact, bridging the gap between theory and boardroom execution. Other impact include AI ethics, ESG transformation, regulatory innovation, and the rise of intelligent compliance frameworks.
