The applicable perimeter depends on entity type, licence and sector. These priorities provide a practical starting point for programme design and evidence management.
01Each row translates an official regulatory source into an operational GRC focus, then identifies only the platforms with a defensible workflow or evidence role.

This mapping is an implementation aid, not legal advice. It describes configurable workflow and evidence support, not automatic compliance. Always validate applicability, current versions, implementation dates and supervisory expectations with qualified advisers and the relevant authority.
Brochure-Validated Capability
The mapping uses the capabilities documented in the current brochures. It does not extend the platforms beyond their stated functional scope.

Best suited to enterprise risk ownership, risk and control registers, assessments, appetite and tolerances, KRIs, treatments, approvals, dashboards and board reporting.

Best suited to the audit universe, risk-based planning, engagement execution, RCM-linked design and effectiveness testing, evidence, findings, approvals and follow-up.

Best suited to incident intake, triage, investigation, root-cause analysis, escalation, notifications, corrective and preventive actions, closure and lessons learned.
The platforms support governance workflows, accountability, evidence and reporting. They do not calculate regulatory capital or liquidity, replace technical cybersecurity monitoring, provide legal interpretation, issue external-audit opinions or automatically file statutory notifications unless an approved integration and process are configured.
Use one traceable workflow to translate requirements, manage execution and demonstrate oversight.
