M A & AWARDS 2015 38 Finance Monthly M&A Awards 2015 www.finance-monthly.com UNITED KINGDOM Risk Management Firm of the Year StratexSystems Blackfriars Foundry, 154-156 Blackfriars Road, London, SE1 8EN Website: www.stratexsystems.com FIRM PROFILE StratexSystems delivers an Enterprise Governance, Risk and Compliance (GRC) solution that enables regulated and non- regulated firms to embed key GRC related processes into Business as Usual. We have a strong track-record of success across the Financial Services industry, particularly Banking, Asset Management and Central Banks/Regulators. Firms we work with typically have a management or regulatory imperative to improve their GRC processes and practices. They recognise that using ad hoc spreadsheet systems or legacy software systems will not enable them to achieve their GRC vision and embed key GRC processes and practices as Business as Usual. They also recognise that without a modern GRC platform, risk and compliance teams will continue to struggle with manual processes and chasing data rather than focusing on analysing data, generating insights and driving sustainable decision-making. Our software solution, StratexPoint is designed to support the embedding of key GRC processes and practices into the day-to-day decision-making culture of the business. It is built on the ubiquitous Microsoft SharePoint platform and provides a comprehensive suite of capabilities in areas such as Accountabilities, Enterprise Performance Management, Enterprise Risk Management, including Operational, Conduct, 3rd Party and Regulatory Risk, Compliance Management and Internal Audit. StratexPoint supports each of the three lines of defence; the solution is comprehensive in nature but modular in deployment, delivering a high ROI, high user adoption and high levels of assurance to your Board and Regulator(s) that you are operating within appetite. The goal is simple – to help businesses execute strategy while operating within their acceptable level of risk exposure. “ “
