Data Analytics and Automation

We help clients make their compliance efforts more data-driven and automated so that compliance teams can respond to changing circumstances with greater speed and agility.

 

Challenges

Today’s business climate is marked by the need to operate more remotely and efficiently – all while monitoring compliance risks on a continuous, dynamic basis.  This involves reimagining how compliance programs, like the businesses they serve, can apply technology to become more data-driven and automated.

This need dovetails with the latest Department of Justice guidance on evaluating compliance programs, which directs prosecutors to consider the following when evaluating the creditworthiness of a company’s compliance program:

  • Risk Assessment – Is the risk assessment current and subject to periodic review?  Is the periodic review limited to a “snapshot” in time or based upon a continuous access to operational data and information across functions?  What information or metrics has the company collected and used to help detect the type of misconduct in question?

  • Data Resources and Access – Do compliance and control personnel have sufficient direct or indirect access to relevant sources of data to allow for timely and effective monitoring and/or testing of policies, controls and transactions?  Do any impediments exist that limit access to relevant sources of data, and if so, what is the company doing to address the impediments? 

  • Third Party Management – Does the company engage in risk management of third parties throughout the lifespan of the relationship, or primarily during the onboarding process?
