The rise of AI has transformed the financial industry. As it continues to move ahead, this is leading the technology to redefine the future of regulation and compliance. We recently spoke to Bhavin Shah, CEO of RegTech firm Sherlocq, to find out more about what he believes on this topic, and why it matters.
Founded in 2025, Sherlocq claims it is the world’s first AI-native regulatory intelligence platform, built for compliance, legal, and regulatory professionals operating in regulated industries globally.
The company states that its platform enables regulated firms, financial institutions, law firms, consulting practices, and regulators to conduct multi-jurisdiction regulatory research, analyse policies and frameworks, benchmark controls, and perform sanctions intelligence, in minutes rather than days.

- Is regulation capable of keeping pace with AI?
- Where regulators draw the line between AI innovation and explainability
- Is AI created a new category of regulatory risk?
- The biggest misconceptions firms have around AI
