Industry Innovation Session

Sponsored By


BITS has released version three of its Shared Assessments Program, providing a comprehensive framework for standardizing the necessary assessment of outsourcing vendors by financial institutions. Widespread adoption of the program with its Agreed Upon Procedures (AUP) for independent audits and comprehensive SIG (Supplemental Information Gathering) questionnaire offer an unquestioned benefit to the industry. In this session we will introduce a new collaborative, open source, approach to automating the SIG development, approval, maintenance, and data integration processes. The session will also introduce the Collaborative Software Initiative and its community approach to developing compliance software.
