RLR Technology Guidance Program

For the past twenty years or so, RLR Management Consulting has had a program that we call our Technology Guidance Program. This program was initiated to assist our clients with understanding the latest regulatory guidance updates that are periodically released. We review the guidance in detail and structure an easy to understand Toolkit that summarizes what the guidance says, what the impact on the bank will likely be, and defines what actions the bank needs to take, including risk mitigation activities, to adhere to the new guidance.

As part of our Technology Guidance Program, our Toolkits outline the following for each FIL released:

  • Background
  • Purpose and Objectives
  • Recommended Financial Institution (FI) Measures to Mitigate Risk
  • Risk Assessment

Our Toolkits may continue with discussing Contracts, On-going Oversight, Contingency, Event Planning, and Emerging Risks. This is a general format we publish for most every new guidance that is published. Our summaries are published within 30 days of the published guidance.

Our Tech guidance program is offered to our clients on an annual subscription basis. Cost of the annual subscription is $1,500, payable in January of each year.
