Get Your Compliance House in Order - Before Regulators Come Knocking
Citigroup recently was publicly rebuked by regulators – and fined $400 million – for failing to improve its hodgepodge of risk and compliance systems. And Citi is not alone in receiving this level of scrutiny. Regulators are now paying close attention to the processes companies have in place to manage risk holistically. Fines, reputations, and other costly damages are all very real ...

EQuIS Collect to EnviroInsite
Environmental remediation and compliance monitoring are time sensitive and dependent on quick access to reliable, actionable information. Data visualization is often the most appropriate means of decision support for day-to-day monitoring and site characterization. However, the time delay between data collection and data visualization is not conducive to time critical decision making. Legacy ...
