Regulatory Oversight:
A New Compliance Priority
- Succession planning frameworks and talent management are increasingly subject to regulatory scrutiny. Regulators such as the USFDA (pharma) and the Reserve Bank of India (banking) now include talent engagement and succession planning in audits.
- Traditionally a board-level concern, regulatory compliance now extends beyond financial metrics to encompass governance and talent strategy. This shift has elevated the importance of strong succession frameworks, with boards held accountable for both operational and leadership continuity.
