RegSignals provides normalized governance and economic risk signals derived from World Bank data. It is designed for compliance teams, fintech platforms, analysts, and developers who need reliable country-level risk indicators without legal or data-licensing ambiguity.


What problem does this solve?

Working directly with raw World Bank datasets presents several challenges:

  • Data is fragmented across endpoints and formats
  • Governance indicators are difficult to normalize and compare
  • Compliance and risk teams require explainable, country-level signals
  • Integrations often take weeks rather than hours

RegSignals solves this by delivering a clean, stable, and production-ready API.


What you get

  • Governance risk signals based on Worldwide Governance Indicators (WGI)
  • Country-level economic time series
  • Queryable by country, indicator, and year
  • Stable schema with pagination and rate limits
  • Read-only, secure, and marketplace-compatible design
