Enterprise Compliance Partners

Risk Management Consulting

At Kaiserseder Consulting, we review risk management and Internal Controls Systems (ICS) of financial institutions in order to find ways to make these frameworks leaner, without jeopardizing the regulatory acceptance. Usually, this works as a combination to simplify the framework and finding smart opportunities for the digitalization of risk management or compliance tasks. Mitratech, as a partner, offers digital solutions, matching our philosophy and ideas on how to manage risks more efficiently and effectively.

Examples of tested solutions are:

• Managing EUC risks with Cluster Seven
• Efficient policy management with Policy Hub combined with TAP Workflows

Leader in spreadsheet deployment software – Excel is the most widely used business tool in the world. However, it is designed as a desktop solution rather than an enterprise tool, and when critical spreadsheets, often with VBA and macros, are made accessible to multiple users within an organization, then the result is often loss of version control, unsecured intellectual property, compromised reliability and integrity, and lack of any auditability – otherwise known as “spreadsheet chaos”.
