DENVER, Colo., Dec. 7, 2021—ACES Quality Management® (ACES), the leading provider of enterprise quality management and control software for the financial services industry, announced it has partnered with Winnow Solutions to power certain compliance and regulatory operations within ACES through its RegTech platform Winnow®. An innovative and dynamic financial law database built by attorneys and powered by cutting-edge technology, Winnow takes the guesswork out of compliance by instantaneously identifying regulatory requirements applicable to specific institution types and products. The addition of Winnow’s comprehensive database helps ensure ACES continues to provide its users with the most accurate and up-to-date information on state regulations.
“Maintaining compliance with all applicable rules and regulations is one of the most critical outcomes of lenders’ quality control processes. However, managing the sheer volume of regulatory requirements from both the state and federal level can overwhelm even the most seasoned, well-staffed compliance team, which ultimately puts loan quality in jeopardy and exposes organizations to unnecessary risk,” said ACES President and Chief Operating Officer Phillip McCall. “Because it was incubated inside of one of the industry’s preeminent legal advisory firms, Winnow serves as a powerful resource for tracking compliance changes at all levels, and we are thrilled to leverage the extensive Winnow regulatory database to enhance the compliance support ACES delivers to our clients.”
Winnow covers state laws and regulations specific to the full lifecycle of mortgage, auto, credit card, consumer and commercial-purpose lending and financing. The platform also includes generally applicable requirements that impact the lending and servicing of these products, including such topics as marketing and advertising, debt collection, telemarketing, notary requirements, electronic signatures and documents, powers of attorney and privacy/data security. With Winnow, subscribers can instantaneously and intuitively create a survey of laws based on any of these topics, export the results to their chosen file format, and save them to receive tailored updates of law changes.
“Operating or scaling a financial services company is highly difficult, even under the best of circumstances. Add on the constant change of regulatory requirements, and it becomes even more daunting. That’s why a trusted partner like ACES is crucial for speeding up the audit and approval process,” said Chris Hilliard, Chief Operating Officer and a Founder of Winnow Solutions, LLC. “We’re delighted that ACES has chosen Winnow to power its compliance research, allowing it to deliver even more value to its customers. ACES has an excellent reputation as an industry leader in the QC space, and we deeply appreciate the trust it has placed in us.”
