Multiple forces, from geopolitical change to business model evolution to increasing department digitization through innovative technologies and artificial intelligence, are having an impact on business strategy and operations, and increasing the demands on legal departments today. Facing pressures to reduce risk, improve efficiencies, increase productivity, drive economic growth and enhance the customer experience, the opportunity now exists for legal, risk, regulatory and compliance teams to respond to these forces and reimagine the way in which they deliver services.
