Trackers and Templates
Most compliance teams still run regulatory change on spreadsheets: in Regology's 2024 survey, 79% of compliance departments said they do. A spreadsheet is a sound place to start if it has the right columns, a named owner on every row and a changelog. The templates in this hub are free and need no email address, and each comes with a field-by-field guide and worked rows built on real regulations such as DORA and the EU AI Act.
Use the horizon scanning template for rules that are not in force yet, the obligations register for what binds you today, the impact assessment template when a specific rule lands, and the change tracker to log every change from detection to closure. The US state privacy laws tracker applies the same discipline to one fast-moving area of law, and the change management policy template writes the process down for examiners.

- Regulatory Horizon Scanning Template: Free Framework and Excel DownloadA free Excel register for rules that are not in force yet: 21 annotated columns, a scoring rubric, 15 pre-filled sources, a one-page monthly report and a worked row for the EU AI Act deadline that moved.
- Regulatory Obligations Register Template: How to Build One That Survives an AuditA free, ungated obligations register template with 28 annotated fields, six populated rows from DORA, and the change-management columns that decide whether the register survives an audit. It is built for a time when regulators collect registers in prescribed formats.
- Regulatory Change Impact Assessment Template (With a Worked DORA Example)A six-section regulatory change impact assessment template, published in full with no sign-up wall, then filled in end to end for the DORA subcontracting RTS. It includes the fields most templates omit: instrument lifecycle status, documented out-of-scope reasoning, and evidence and validation for each obligation.
- Free Regulatory Change Tracker Spreadsheet, and When You'll Outgrow ItAn ungated regulatory change tracker in Excel with a 25-field change log, an emerging-regulations tab and worked rows from the EU AI Act, DORA and the FCA Grid. Plus a ten-question scorecard that tells you, with a number, when the spreadsheet stops being the right tool.
- Regulatory Change Management Policy Template (FFIEC-Aligned)A 13-section regulatory change management policy template published in full with no email gate, plus a crosswalk that maps each section to the FFIEC rating-system language and OCC examination procedure it answers, and a change log entry with a worked example.
- US State Privacy Laws Tracker (2026): Every Law, Deadline, and AmendmentTwenty-four states have enacted comprehensive privacy laws if you count Florida, and twenty are in effect. This tracker states its counting rule and merges statutes, amendments, regulator deadlines and cure-period sunsets into one dated compliance calendar.
