The Challenge

This regional community bank's compliance program relied on manual processes that consumed significant staff time during regulatory examination preparation periods.

The organization faced multiple compliance frameworks including GLBA, FFIEC, BSA/AML, and state-specific banking regulations. Evidence collection for annual regulatory examinations required 3-4 months of intensive preparation, pulling staff away from customer service and strategic banking initiatives.

Key Pain Points:

  • Evidence scattered across core banking, risk management, and compliance systems
  • No centralized view of exam readiness across the organization
  • Manual documentation processes prone to gaps and inconsistencies
  • Examination preparation disrupted normal banking operations
