Coursera10-K: Compliance burden

Coursera faces growing compliance burdens across higher education, data protection, AI ethics, and antitrust regulations.

What happened

The company must navigate a complex and evolving global regulatory landscape, which could have a material impact on the business. This increases legal and operational costs and creates a need for investment in compliance management systems, GRC platforms, and specialized legal or consulting expertise, particularly with the rise of AI ethics rules.
