An RSI Managing Risk method
Allocation of regulatory responsibilities
Broadly
The allocation of regulatory responsibilities refers to the distribution of roles among agencies, jurisdictions, or departments in managing specific risks. Clearly defined roles enhance efficiency, reduce duplication, and ensure coherent enforcement. Misalignment or gaps in responsibility can delay action, create legal ambiguity, or undermine public trust. This method is often part of governance reform, policy redesign, or intergovernmental coordination efforts.
More specifically
RSI works with public agencies and multi-level governance systems to map and optimize the allocation of regulatory responsibilities. Its approach identifies overlaps, gaps, and inefficiencies, then provides recommendations for clarification and coordination. RSI’s impartial analysis and understanding of regulatory ecosystems make it a valued partner in strengthening institutional arrangements for risk management.
