The Official Spanish Chamber of Commerce in Belgium and Luxembourg, in collaboration with its member firm Aptus, is organising on October 8th, from 12.30 to 13.30 pm., an online workshop on “Compliance Under Pressure: From Regulatory Chaos to an Actionable Plan”.

As the 2026 regulatory deadlines are now upon us, financial institutions and compliance professionals are facing an unprecedented convergence of demands. AML Package RTS, DORA, ESG/SFDR, and evolving Corporate Governance frameworks are arriving simultaneously — and the real challenge is no longer understanding each regulation in isolation but knowing how to prioritise them and translating them into an executable Compliance Monitoring Plan.

This session will offer a practical and tool-driven perspective on how Boards and Chief Compliance Officers can move from regulatory awareness to structured action, using a Compliance Monitoring Plan as the central instrument for governance and risk management.

The speaker, Borja Gomez, Market Strategist at Aptus, will walk participants through a concrete methodology — from gap analysis to risk-area prioritisation — and demonstrate through a live use case how the Aptus platform enables compliance testing and connects multiple regulatory frameworks in an integrated way.

The session will close with a Q&A and open discussion, giving participants the opportunity to raise specific challenges and share experiences with peers.
