CoreStream GRC has announced a new partnership and integration with AscentAI’s Regulatory Lifecycle Management (RLM) Platform, aimed at improving how financial services organizations in the United States manage regulatory change and link obligations to internal policies and controls.
This integration responds to a growing need among compliance teams for more efficient, automated, and connected systems that can keep pace with the increasing complexity of the regulatory landscape.
