ProcessUnity Introduces Third-Party Risk Management Solution for Community Banks

Cloud-Based Application Streamlines Vendor Assessments and Facilitates Regulatory Reporting


CONCORD, MA--(Marketwired - Nov 10, 2014) - ProcessUnity today introduced Vendor Cloud Community Bank Edition (CBE), a new version of its flagship vendor risk management solution aimed at helping smaller financial institutions identify and remediate risks posed by third-party service providers. 

Vendor Cloud CBE automates third-party risk activities while capturing key supporting documentation that ensures compliance and fulfills regulatory requirements. Key features include:

  • Vendor Services Catalog - creates a central repository of vendor information, key documentation and related risks
  • Configurable, Online Vendor Questionnaires - simplify the assessment process for organizations and their suppliers
  • Dynamic Reporting - provides real-time visibility into the state of third-party risk and demonstrates to regulators the existence of an effective program

As a cloud-based application, Vendor Cloud CBE does not require hardware or IT support. Users access the secure system through their web browser. Simple import templates allow organizations to migrate their existing content.

"When it comes to third-party risk, community banks face the same level of regulatory pressures as larger financial institutions, but have fewer resources to manage their programs," said Sean Cronin, General Manager, Risk Management Solutions at ProcessUnity. "Vendor Cloud Community Bank Edition delivers automated assessment tools and reporting capabilities that spreadsheets and homegrown databases simply cannot provide. The end result is elimination of busy work, a focus on higher-value risk mitigation activities and a repeatable, reliable program that stands up to regulatory scrutiny."

Availability and Pricing

Vendor Cloud CBE is available immediately at a special introductory price specifically designed for financial institutions that manage less than $1 billion in assets. The annual subscription includes training, technical support, five user licenses and the ability to manage up to 300 vendors.
