One compliance story from FinTech startup to regional bank. The expertise compounds across all of it.
Every company in regulated financial services faces the same structural problem: infrastructure that must satisfy compliance frameworks continuously, not at audit time. The difference between a FinTech startup and a regional bank is scale and regulatory intensity — not the fundamental challenge.
APRA CPS234. PCI DSS. ISO 27001. SOC 2. ASIC obligations on robo-advice and algorithmic trading. AUSTRAC reporting requirements. The frameworks differ in detail but overlap in what they demand: continuous visibility into your AWS environment, auditable change management, evidence of control coverage, and the ability to demonstrate posture to regulators on request.
FinTech & WealthTech — B2B SaaS companies, payment processors, robo-advisors, digital investment platforms. AWS-native, fastest-moving, most urgent compliance pain. Key frameworks: PCI DSS, ISO 27001, SOC 2, ASIC obligations.
Neo-banks & Challenger Banks — APRA-regulated, tech-first, comparable engineering culture to FinTech. Heavier compliance requirements but the same need for operational intelligence. Key frameworks: APRA CPS234, PCI DSS, ISO 27001, SOC 2.
Mid-tier Banks & Wealth Management — More complex environments, more teams, more regulatory scrutiny over change management. The service scales — the agents handle the analytical load. Key frameworks: APRA CPS234, PCI DSS, ISO 27001, SOC 2, AUSTRAC reporting.
Insurance, Super Funds & Investment Managers — Trustee boards and risk committees need the benchmark score. Regulatory scrutiny is highest. The dashboard and evidence packages are built for this audience. Key frameworks: APRA CPS234, ASIC, AUSTRAC, ISO 27001.
APRA, ASIC, and AUSTRAC are no longer asking whether financial services companies use cloud infrastructure. They are asking what governance exists around it. Specifically:
