The challenge is not finding information—it is surviving the flood of it. Every regulator publishes differently: the ECB uses structured XML feeds, Canada's FINTRAC offers APIs, but most Asia-Pacific regulators still default to PDFs. Layer on translation delays (Japan and Brazil release in local language first), inconsistent cadence (some APAC bodies post on weekends), and the absence of a single global taxonomy, and you have a system that actively resists automation. Without round-the-clock ingestion, firms are permanently in catch-up mode.
