The Post-Brexit Contract Checker allows for an easy language review of different types of documentation, determining which language needs to be changed or updated. This tool can also be particularly useful in the drafting phase of commercial and financial documents, such as offers of securities, benchmark disclosure reports, MAR, and BRRD related documentation.

#### Background

Starting from June 2021, any kind of contractual documentation which applies between countries within the European Union and the United Kingdom require amendments regarding the language and the references used. This spans all corporate business areas, from trade agreements to data privacy and protection initiatives and policies, elevating the need for consistent and accurate legal operations. 

#### **Impact of post-Brexit (dis)continuity** 

And yet most of these efforts are tackled manually. The nuanced nature of these agreements and multiple relations between EU, non-EU, and UK stakeholders makes it difficult to copy-paste amendments to contractual documentation, leaving companies exposed to heightened risk of non-compliance and lost business opportunities. 

Post-Brexit is a particularly busy time for law firms and in-house legal departments, having to review large volumes of documents to be updated or amended. As a result, legal professionals, swarmed with an increasing number of legal advice requests, have a reduced capacity to address other strategic and business development issues, which leads to less effective decisioning in crucial questions and pushes up the regulatory risk.

#### **Automating post-Brexit continuity efforts**

With BRYTER, the user can build an automated post-Brexit Contract Continuity Checker, which allows for a quick and easy language review of different types of documentation, determining which language needs to be changed or updated. This tool can also be particularly useful in the drafting phase of commercial and financial documents, such as offers of securities, benchmark disclosure reports, MAR, and BRRD related documentation.  

As these types of documents usually contain many definitions across hundreds of pages, they are very accessible to the automated review process.  

In addition to integrations with document analysis software, the BRYTER No-Code tool enables the user to use [**document automation**](https://bryter.com/applications/document-automation/) to create an automated document in compliance with new primary market language (as provided by the relevant authorities from time to time).  

Further, BRYTER can create a report outlining which clauses or documents require updates, based on the input and results detected by the software in the background. The checker offers a completely customizable structure which can be tailored to the specific user’s needs and review processes. 

Consequently, all corporate departments, from legal to sales, ensure full compliance with most recent regulatory amendments, safeguarding their and their clients’ market standing and reducing risk exposure. By automating repetitive yet unique contract continuity activities, corporates and law firms have greater capacity to focus on high-impact post-Brexit issues, responding timely to market and customer needs, in real time and based on data-driven insights.
