Saudi Arabia RegTech Market Trends:

Expansion of insurance services

The expansion of insurance services is positively influencing the market. As the insurance sector is thriving in the country, companies are handling larger volumes of customer data, policies, and transactions, which require efficient monitoring and reporting. RegTech solutions aid insurers in staying compliant with evolving regulations, both local and international, by automating tasks, such as risk assessment, customer onboarding, and anti-money laundering (AML) checks. The rising number of products, including life, health, and property insurance, is creating more complex regulatory requirements, encouraging insurers to adopt smart technologies that reduce manual processes and human error. With the encouragement for digital transformation and transparency, insurance companies are turning to RegTech to improve data accuracy, ensure timely regulatory filings, and detect irregularities in real time. Additionally, RegTech supports the integration of digital identification (ID) verification and automated Know Your Customer (KYC) systems, helping insurers speed up customer service without compromising security. Saudi Arabia’s Vision 2030 is also promoting a more diversified financial sector, including insurance, which is attracting investments in digital infrastructure. As competition in the insurance industry is rising, companies are seeking RegTech to maintain regulatory trust and gain operational efficiency. As per industry reports, the insurance industry is set to expand at a CAGR of 5.2% by 2028.

Increasing utilization of AI

Rising adoption of AI is impelling the Saudi Arabia RegTech market growth. In the 2024 Global AI Index published by Tortoise Media in September, Saudi Arabia moved up 17 spots to reach 14th place overall, surpassing the UAE as the top Arab country in AI. It helps companies analyze large volumes of regulatory data in real time, making it easier to detect risks, track policy changes, and ensure timely compliance. In Saudi Arabia, financial institutions are employing AI-oriented tools for customer verification, fraud detection, and transaction monitoring. AI also improves accuracy in reporting and reduces the chances of human error. With complex regulations constantly evolving, AI allows businesses to adapt quickly and remain compliant. AI-based RegTech solutions offer predictive insights, aiding companies in making proactive decisions.

Growing cybersecurity concerns

The growing cybersecurity concerns among people are offering a favorable market outlook. As digital transactions are increasing across banking, insurance, and government services, the risk of cyber threats is rising. As per industry reports, in 2024, Saudi Arabia faced 88 ransomware attacks, focusing more on essential sectors, such as manufacturing, information, and construction. RegTech tools help companies monitor suspicious activities, detect data breaches, and enforce compliance with data privacy laws. These solutions employ real-time analytics and automated alerts to reduce the impact of cyber incidents. In Saudi Arabia, where financial institutions handle sensitive customer data, cybersecurity is becoming a top priority. RegTech platforms support secure onboarding, identity verification, and transaction monitoring while meeting regulatory standards. With stringent national regulations and the growing worldwide compliance expectations, businesses are turning to RegTech for reliable cybersecurity measures.
