“Ascent’s AI-powered software was a natural fit to integrate with our market-leading Regulatory Compliance solutions; our customers will benefit from time savings and actionable insights to help drive their compliance programs forward.”
The partnership will include the integration of Ascent’s AI-driven compliance data into Diligent’s Highbond Platform, providing clients with real-time insights into their compliance status. The software will monitor for regulatory change, interpret the changes, then provide actionable and auditable updates for compliance teams.
By combining Diligent’s regulatory compliance management solution with Ascent’s AI technology, organizations can better organize compliance processes and keep pace with ever-morphing regulations, even in complex multi-jurisdictional operating environments. The combination of Diligent with Ascent will help reduce organizational risk while lowering compliance costs.
The integration removes the need for manual tracking and analysis of regulatory websites. It will help compliance teams save time and resources as AI-powered tools automatically identify and flag rules and rule changes applicable to specific business units. When regulatory rule changes occur, obligations are automatically updated, alerting the user to assess the impact and take necessary actions.
“At Diligent, we are continuously looking to add value for our customers through new partnerships and integrations,” said Ricardo Moreno, SVP of Worldwide Partnerships at Diligent. “Ascent’s AI-powered software was a natural fit to integrate with our market-leading Regulatory Compliance solutions; our customers will benefit from time savings and actionable insights to help drive their compliance programs forward.”
