Rsam to Join Third-Party Risk Management Leaders at the Shared Assessments Summit 2014

SECAUCUS, NJ--(Marketwired - May 20, 2014) - Rsam, the industry-leader in Governance, Risk, and Compliance (GRC) solutions, will participate at the Shared Assessments Summit 2014 in Boston, MA on May 20-21, 2014. The event brings together senior risk executives from a range of industries including financial services, healthcare, telecommunications, energy and higher education to discuss trends, challenges and best practices for managing vendor/outsourcing risks.

This year's theme, "The Changing Landscape: Moving from Risk Management to Risk Assurance," echoes the growing need in the industry to expand third-party oversight and due diligence in the wake of increasing regulatory scrutiny. As organizations struggle with the significant burdens associated with ongoing third-party oversight, programs like Shared Assessments bring consistency and standardization to organizations looking to meet these requirements in an efficient and cost-effective way. 

During this two-day event, Rsam will showcase its comprehensive Vendor Risk Management solution for effective third-party risk management. As OCC guidelines place greater emphasis on continuous risk management practices, Rsam enables organizations to create a repeatable process that goes beyond simple vendor risk management and moves towards proactive, continuous third-party risk oversight and assurance. 

A Shared Assessments partner since 2007, Rsam integrates the Standard Information Gathering Questionnaire (SIG) content for vendor assessment with the Rsam Platform, and continues to align its offering to focus on continuous risk management practices that provide value to customers.
