Fintech Hires Bridgeforce for Annual Compliance Management System Assessment

A fintech hired Bridgeforce for an independent compliance management system assessment and received valuable risk-based enhancements tailored to its growing portfolio.

An East Coast-based point of sale fintech proactively engaged Bridgeforce to conduct an independent annual Compliance Management System Assessment (CMS) and associated business practices, as mandated by its sponsor bank. Bridgeforce not only conducted the assessment but also offered valuable guidance on risk-based prioritization of enhancements, ensuring alignment with the fintech’s expanding portfolio.

By the end of the project, the client had found an advisor they could trust to conduct annual assessments for years to come.

Compliance Management Systems: Understanding One Size Doesn’t Fit All

The client was a start-up fintech specializing in point-of-sale marketing. Due to their unique offering, they were growing rapidly. Their sponsor bank required them to conduct an independent annual assessment of their CMS and related business practices. Because the organization was small, budget constraints were a challenge. The client needed a team that could still provide a strong, valuable assessment regardless of their limitations.

Bridgeforce assessed the client’s compliance management system and provided the documentation needed to satisfy the sponsor bank.
