Regulatory Change Feed
Ascent’s regulatory change feed surfaces rule additions or amendments that are relevant to your firm.
Clicking on any of the document titles leads you to the full PDF of the document, which you can share with colleagues or download. Ascent’s disposition feature allows you to mark documents as in need of review by colleagues.
Rule Compare
Ascent provides a side-by-side comparison of the current and previous version of the rule with the differences redlined. Easily scan the rule text and see what has changed.
Impacted Obligations
With every rule change, Ascent indicates the impact to your obligations register, showing whether you have new obligations, deleted obligations, or changed obligations due to the change.
Drill into the details of how your obligations have changed. Every obligation is presented at its most granular level, meaning the individual action that your firm must take (or refrain from taking) in order to be compliant. Each obligation is accompanied by crucial data such as the rule number it came from (giving you utmost transparency and traceability) and the effective date.
