STEP 1: Get your bearings

Start with...

Organized in a data driven improvement cycle RDMAICS (Recognize, Define, Measure, Analyze, Improve, Control and Sustain), check the…


• Example pre-filled Self-Assessment Excel Dashboard to get familiar with results generation


Then find your goals...

STEP 2: Set concrete goals, tasks, dates and numbers you can track

Featuring 990 new and updated case-based questions, organized into seven core areas of process design, this Self-Assessment will help you identify areas in which Dodd-Frank improvements can be made.

Examples; 10 of the 990 standard requirements:


1. Have the views of the federal regulators, particularly the Fed, fundamentally changed in relation to the ability of markets to order themselves and the necessity of regulatory oversight and action?
   
   

2. What steps, if any, should the Bureau take to address the accuracy of consumer data that as a result of authorized data access is in the control or possession of data aggregators or data users?
   
   

3. What is the best way to achieve transparency, to understand it in terms of systemic risk so the regulators can some way and the public can some way determine what is the systemic risk?
   
   

4. Do consumers individual decisions to authorize data access entail significant negative or positive externalities on other consumers, data holders, data aggregators or data users?
   
   

5. Do customers of smaller data holders receive the same benefits from competition and innovation enabled by authorized data access as do customers of larger data holders?
   
   

6. How will market data provided through swap data repositories be used to inform your rulemaking about appropriate block trade rules and reporting requirements?
   
   

7. Have you performed a gap analysis to determine what business, operational, and automated transaction processes need to change as a result of the new rules?
   
   

8. Are the disclosures presented in a way that is likely to call the consumers attention to the nature and significance of the information in the notice?
   
   

9. Where are we in terms of making the Dodd-Frank resolution authority work for large, systemically significant financial firms operating across borders?
   
   

10. Do your policies contain all the relevant disclosures, in addition to the Loan Estimate and the Closing Disclosure, required by the new rules?
