  • delivery by a licensed FRS outsource partner

Chief Marketing Officer at FRS, Frank Carr said; “We are delighted that InvestGRC™ has been named as a finalist in the FStech Awards, and continues to gain recognition within the industry as a market-leading RegTech solution.” “In discussions with the industry last year, we found many companies were directly impacted by stringent PRIIPs regulation coming into effect from Jan 1st 2018, and it was decided that InvestGRC™ must include the PRIIPs module. Uniquely our software caters for the complex requirements of both fund of funds PRIIPs and open architecture wrapped products.”

The winners will be determined by an independent judging panel and announced at the renowned FStech Awards Gala and Dinner on 22 March 2018 at the London Marriott Hotel, Grosvenor Square.
