No company is immune from the impact of both existing and/or potential regulations.

Understanding the impact of regulations on business strategy is imperative for a company to navigate the regulatory landscape, while maintaining their ability to achieve their strategic goals. "Assessing the Impact of Regulation on Business Strategy" is a strategic framework designed to help decision-makers, consultants, strategists, and other key stakeholders streamline their assessment of the regulation on various aspects of their business strategy.

Although regulations can create and/or increase a company's accountability, cost and liabilities, while also inhibiting existing business activities that create value and growth, there is an upside.

Regulations can create business opportunities for companies if the impact of regulations are properly assessed through a strategic framework within the company's business strategy. Once properly assessed, companies have a more comprehensive understanding of the regulatory impact of the existing/potential regulation on pertinent aspects of their business strategy. This allows companies to then discover opportunities to further strategic goals, such as achieving/maintaining competitive advantage or business growth under the regulation in question.
