Financial institutions are proactively managing risk to accelerate business execution and create competitive advantage. Forward-looking governance, risk, and compliance programs protect value by enabling continuous risk monitoring, real-time reporting, and visibility across their operating model.

We provide integrated financial risk consulting solutions and technology through a full suite of proactive and reactive solutions to help you execute, while managing risk and maintaining compliance.

Data Privacy
Proper handling of data is critical in the face of regulations and to protect personal information. Guidehouse will help you establish a framework to secure, protect, and manage the controlled proliferation of data to satisfy both internal and external privacy mandates, as well as consumer preferences. Further, we understand and can help solve for the unique challenges presented from a domestic and global privacy perspective.
Enterprise Risk Management
Guidehouse’s Enterprise Risk Management framework helps financial institutions evaluate program effectiveness against industry benchmarks and firm strategic priorities to create an optimal risk management operating model. We partner with clients to identify, assess, monitor, and respond to risks, enabling improved agility, organizational sustainability, and resilience. We help companies design/adapt programs that protect value, drive growth, and ensure compliance.
Examination Preparedness
Increased and dynamic regulatory priorities make it difficult for financial institutions to prioritize enhancement opportunities leading into a regulatory exam. More importantly, these companies need a sound and defensible response when issues are uncovered by regulators or internal audit. Guidehouse is at the forefront of regulatory change, leveraging deep industry knowledge to guide effective and efficient examination preparedness and calculated response for our clients.
Regulatory Change Management
Managing continuous regulatory change can be costly, labor-intensive, and often ineffective. Building an agile and proactive governance program can transform regulatory change risk into opportunity. Guidehouse partners with companies to build a sustainable and flexible compliance program that can respond to dynamic changes. We team with clients to create a culture of compliance, enabled by the most effective and efficient framework for their unique business. Most importantly, we are in the trenches with you, operationalizing compliance controls.

Banks are harnessing the power of third-party relationships at unprecedented scale and scope. These complex relationships often introduce unforeseen risks to your organization, attracting the attention of regulatory/supervisory agencies, often resulting in stiff penalties for noncompliance. Guidehouse works with clients to examine third-party relationships, focused on tightening monitoring policies and increasing risk visibility, while ensuring regulatory compliance.
