Venture capital firms are actively investing in innovative Regtech companies that provide cutting-edge solutions. Regtech companiesactive in the financial service sector include:

- AQMetrics, a cloud-based platform that offers an effective, innovative, and simplified solution to address regulatory risk and compliance issues.
- Scaled Risk, which integrates in-memory analytics and big data to provide real-time, scalable, and flexible risk management solutions for banks and other financial services companies.
