Abstract

A method for distributing requests for artifacts to a regulated institution for risk assessment includes: storing a client profile including a risk rating value corresponding to a risk that the related regulated institution will not be compliant with a set of regulations; identifying a plurality of artifacts to be provided by the regulated institution, each artifact including a frequency, a weight, one of a plurality of waves, and one of a plurality of categories; assigning a priority value to each of the categories; grouping each artifact into a plurality of buckets, each bucket including artifacts that include a common wave and a common category, and wherein the artifacts are evenly distributed into the buckets; and generating a request schedule, wherein the request schedule is a schedule for the distribution of requests for artifacts included in each bucket over a predetermined period of time.

Claims (40)

1 . A method for distributing requests for artifacts to a regulated institution for risk assessment, comprising:

storing, in a database, a client profile, wherein the client profile includes data related to a regulated institution including at least a risk rating value corresponding to a risk that the related regulated institution will not be compliant with a set of regulations;

identifying, by a processing device, a plurality of artifacts to be provided by the regulated institution, wherein each artifact of the plurality of artifacts includes at least a frequency, a weight, one of,a plurality of waves, and one of a plurality of categories;

assigning, by the processing device, a priority value to each of the plurality of categories;

grouping, by the processing device, each artifact of the plurality of artifacts into a plurality of buckets, wherein each bucket includes artifacts of the plurality of artifacts that include a common wave and a common category, and wherein the plurality of artifacts are evenly distributed into the plurality of buckets; and

generating, by the processing device, a request schedule, wherein the request schedule is a schedule for the distribution of requests for artifacts included in each bucket of the plurality of buckets over a predetermined period of time.

2 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

transmitting, by a transmitting device, the requests for artifacts to the regulated institution based on the generated request schedule.

3 . The method of claim 2 , further comprising:

receiving, by a receiving device, a plurality of supplied artifacts in response to the transmitted requests for artifacts; and

updating, by the processing device, the risk rating value associated with the regulated institution based on the received plurality of supplied artifacts.

4 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

identifying, by the processing device, at least one artifact of the plurality of artifacts that meets at least one of a plurality of predefined suppression conditions based on compliance data associated with the regulated institution; and

removing, from the plurality of artifacts, the identified at least one artifact.

5 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the schedule for the distribution of requests is generated such that the requests for artifacts are evenly distributed during the predetermined period of time.

6 . The method of claim 1 , wherein generating the request schedule includes scheduling buckets with a higher priority value ahead of buckets with a lower priority value.

7 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the frequency is at least one of: quarterly, semi-annually, monthly, and annually.

8 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the weight is a numeric value corresponding to a burden of production of the associated artifact on the regulated institution.

9 . The method of claim 8 , wherein generating the request schedule includes scheduling buckets based on the weights included in the included artifacts of the plurality of artifacts.

10 . A system for distributing artifacts to a regulated institution for risk assessment, comprising:

a database configured to store a client profile, wherein the client profile includes data related to a regulated institution including at least a risk rating value corresponding to a risk that the related regulated institution will not be compliant with a set of regulations;

a processing device configured to

identify a plurality of artifacts to be provided by the regulated institution, wherein each artifact of the plurality of artifacts includes at least a frequency, a weight, one of a plurality of waves, and one of a plurality of categories,

assign a priority value to each of the plurality of categories, and

group each artifact of the plurality of artifacts into a plurality of buckets, wherein each bucket includes artifacts of the plurality of artifacts that include a common wave and a common category, and wherein the plurality of artifacts are evenly distributed into the plurality of buckets; and

a scheduling device configured to generate a request schedule, wherein the request schedule is a schedule for the distribution of requests for artifacts included in each bucket of the plurality of buckets over a predetermined period of time.

11 . The system of claim 10 , further comprising:

a transmitting device configured to transmit the requests for artifacts to the regulated institution based on the generated request schedule.

12 . The system of claim 11 , further comprising:

a receiving device configured to receive a plurality of supplied artifacts in response to the transmitted requests for artifacts, wherein

the processing device is further configured to update the risk rating value associated with the regulated institution based on the received plurality of supplied artifacts.

13 . The system of claim 10 , wherein

the processing device is further configured to

identify at least one artifact of the plurality of artifacts that meets at least one of a plurality of predefined suppression conditions based on compliance data associated with the regulated institution, and

remove, from the plurality of artifacts, the identified at least one artifact.

14 . The system of claim 10 , wherein the schedule for the distribution of requests is generated such that the requests for artifacts are evenly distributed during the predetermined period of time.

15 . The system of claim 10 , wherein generating the request schedule includes scheduling buckets with a higher priority value ahead of buckets with a lower priority value.

16 . The system of claim 10 , wherein the frequency is at least one of: quarterly, semi-annually, monthly, and annually.

17 . The system of claim 10 , wherein the weight is a numeric value corresponding to a burden of production of the associated artifact on the regulated institution.

18 . The system of claim 17 , wherein generating the request schedule includes scheduling buckets based on the weights included in the included artifacts of the plurality of artifacts.
