Review of Software Asset Management Compliance Approach

The FCA have a small core Software Asset Team (up to 5 members) who have been responsible for Software Asset Management since 2015. Following organisational changes, this team will in future be responsible for providing support to 'product groups' (DevOps teams) and governance/reporting of the FCA's compliance position with the product groups accountable for managing their respective assets. There has been significant work undertaken over the last 2 years by the core Asset Management team to understand and manage our compliance position across circa 785 software asset products including SaaS and cloud products using both automated and manual reporting. The FCA would like to understand best practice in this area both in terms of the work completed as well as the approach to managing compliance as we move forward.
