One place for your
compliance officers.
COLPs and COFAs carry the firm's compliance accountability between them. Reglo gives both one place to organise policies, controls, attestations, regulatory updates, training evidence, and audit-ready records — so nothing falls between the two roles.
When compliance is split across COLP and COFA, gaps appear in the seams — who owns what, and where's the evidence?
Policies, approvals, attestations, and training evidence often live in different places for different roles. That fragmentation is where inconsistency — the thing SRA reviews flag most — creeps in. Reglo gives compliance officers one shared, consistent system, with role-appropriate views and a single audit trail.

This replaces overhead — it doesn't need a new budget line.
You already pay for compliance in fee-earner time, COLP and MLRO hours, consultant fees, and the scramble before every review. Reglo absorbs that work instead of adding another tool to manage.
- Hours of policy admin, attestation chasing, and evidence assembly handed back to the firm — not a new headcount.
- Typically less than the billable time firms lose to manual policy updates and audit preparation each month.
- Guided onboarding: we migrate your policies and map your sources — no IT project, no six-month rollout.
Common questions
What's the difference between a COLP and a COFA?
The COLP (Compliance Officer for Legal Practice) is accountable for the firm's compliance with its SRA obligations generally; the COFA (Compliance Officer for Finance and Administration) is accountable for compliance with the accounts rules and finance-related obligations. Reglo supports both with shared evidence.
Does Reglo replace either role?
No. Reglo supports COLPs and COFAs by keeping their policies, approvals, attestations, and audit trails organised. Accountability and decisions remain with the officers.
Can both officers work in the same system?
Yes. Reglo provides role-appropriate views over one consistent record, so the COLP and COFA share an evidence trail without duplicating work.
