Product Profiles

MYRIAD is a powerful vendor and network management solution offering multiple modules that deliver performance, cost management, automated workflow control, rolling due diligence, and sophisticated reporting for actionable intelligence.

CODUDE addresses the increasing burden of regular due diligence with the AFME questionnaire.  CODUDE brings together ‘requesters’ and ‘responders’ in a single platform designed for the bilateral exchange of information across multiple counterparties.

Embus offers an efficient, comprehensive and cost-effective technology solution, reducing the time it takes to onboard a Client, enhancing the Client experience, providing transparency and accountability throughout.
