In 1998, Jeff Roth started developing the ORM platform to address emerging compliance and operational risk management challenges. During the next several years, the platform continued to evolve with the help of many risk management professionals who knew and worked with him as well as input from federal banking examiners who reviewed his compliance programs over the years.
This revolutionary tool was not available to the public—only to the financial institutions where Jeff worked. The patented software is now available to the public, so all financial institutions, financial services companies and service providers can take advantage of its unique functionality.
What sets ORM apart from competing products is its development from the inside-out; ORM is more efficient and less expensive than investor-driven tools, providing the best approach to compliance. Banking examiners and users love it because it consistently delivers almost unheard of exam results, including occasions when the clients had no compliance findings.
