<![CDATA[The increasing complexity of global financial regulatory frameworks poses significant challenges for financial institutions in ensuring compliance, managing risk, and maintaining operational efficiency, particularly in environments characterized by frequent regulatory updates and cross-jurisdictional requirements. This study aims to examine how Artificial Intelligence (AI) can be effectively applied to navigate complex regulatory frameworks by enhancing regulatory interpretation, compliance monitoring, and decision-making processes. A conceptual and analytical approach was adopted, combining a systematic review of recent Regulatory Technology (RegTech) literature with an analysis of AI techniques, including machine learning, natural language processing, and automated reasoning, as applied to regulatory compliance scenarios. Qualitative insights and illustrative use cases were employed to evaluate alignment between AI capabilities and regulatory demands in areas such as regulatory reporting, risk assessment, and anomaly detection. The findings indicate that AI-based systems have the potential to improve the accuracy, speed, and adaptability of compliance processes by supporting automated regulatory interpretation, identifying potential compliance risks, and enhancing monitoring of regulatory changes. When appropriately governed, AI may reduce human error and operational costs while increasing transparency and auditability. The study concludes that AI has strong potential to transform the way financial institutions navigate complex regulatory frameworks, but its effectiveness depends on robust data governance, explainable AI models, and alignment with ethical and legal standards, and it provides strategic insights for regulators and financial institutions seeking responsible adoption of AI in highly regulated financial environments.]]>
