What are you trying to do?
I want to…
ExamReady
Know Your Regulator: what your regulator is asking now, a mock examination without the questions in advance, and your people prepared to answer for the program.
Compliance X-Ray
An expert-led, AI-enabled diagnostic of your whole compliance framework: where it holds, where it breaks, and what to fix first.
RiskReady
Your enterprise compliance risk assessment, the engagement the industry calls a risk 360: obligations, inherent risk, controls and residual risk in one document a board and an examiner can read.
Market Entry Matrix
Target markets and every compliant route into them, compared on opportunity, burden, cost, time to revenue and risk, with a recommended structure.
Why Taft
Regulatory systems built by people who have run them, and examined them.
Former compliance officers and regulators. Institutional experience across regulatory regimes, jurisdictions and operating scale. Practical, durable, proportional to the risk.
See Our DifferenceOur approach
More compliance is not always better compliance.
Every engagement starts with four questions. What is actually required. What actually creates risk. What can be simplified. And where you may already be doing too much.
Required
The obligations that apply to your license, your products and your customers, and nothing borrowed from a bigger firm’s rulebook.
Risk
Where the real exposure sits, which is rarely where the thickest policy is.
Simplify
Controls that do the same job twice, approvals nobody reads, reports nobody uses.
Too much
Where a program built for a past examiner or a past product is costing more than it protects.
Launch & Expand
Regulatory model, licensing, compliance build and market-entry strategy for firms launching or expanding.
Fractional Compliance Team
A fractional CCO, MLRO or BSA officer and the team behind them, on the hours and terms your business actually needs.
Expert Line
Scheduled and priority access to senior compliance judgment, by subscription or per call.
AI & Automation Studio
Compliance automation, AI governance and financial-crime AI readiness for firms that need efficiency without a bank’s budget.
Quantum Compliance
Know where your firm depends on quantum-vulnerable cryptography, who owns the risk and what to do first, before regulators require it.
Know Your Regulator
What your regulator is focused on, what it is finding at firms like yours, and what is coming next.
We read examination priorities, recent findings, enforcement actions, speeches and proposed rules, and we watch what is happening to firms with a license and a business like yours. That intelligence shapes every review we run and every person we prepare.
