This paper investigates the convergence of quantitative risk analysis and compliance reporting within the context of cloud-based financial systems. As regulatory expectations become increasingly stringent and data volumes grow, traditional compliance mechanisms are proving inadequate. The study first explores the regulatory landscape, outlining key frameworks such as Sarbanes-Oxley, Basel III, and the General Data Protection Regulation, which mandate rigorous risk quantification and reporting protocols. It then examines the core theoretical models underpinning modern risk analysis—including Value at Risk, Monte Carlo simulations, and stress testing—alongside the unique risks introduced by cloud computing, such as data breaches, service outages, and vendor dependencies. Methodologically, the paper analyzes statistical, machine learning, and AI-driven approaches to risk modeling, supported by cloud- native platforms and business intelligence tools that facilitate real-time, scalable, and integrated compliance workflows. Case studies from global banks and fintechs illustrate the practical adoption of these innovations, while a comparative evaluation of on-premise and cloud-based systems reveals the growing advantages of digital transformation. The paper concludes by identifying future research opportunities in explainable AI, real-time analytics, and global compliance harmonization. It emphasizes the transformative potential of quantitative analytics and cloud technologies in building resilient, transparent, and proactive compliance ecosystems for financial institutions operating in an increasingly complex regulatory environment.
