NEW YORK, BANGKOK, Thailand and S-HERTOGENBOSCH, Netherlands, 2012-12-17 10:08
CET (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) --
BWise, a NASDAQ OMX company and a global leader in Governance, Risk Management
and Compliance (GRC) software, announced today the expansion of its global
presence with the opening of a new regional office in Bangkok, Thailand. BWise
and its integrated GRC platform will help in developing the emerging GRC market
in South East Asia. By being present in this region, BWise addresses the
increasing interest of Asian financial institutions and other enterprises for
Risk Management, Compliance and Internal Audit solutions to get in control of
their key financial and reputational risks. How BWise enables enterprises to
identify key risks and regulations and monitor the implementation of
appropriate measures, will be the focus of a round table meeting in the region
on January 24, 2013.
Mr. Rob van Straten, Global Head of Sales at BWise, said, 'Through the opening
of our Asian regional office, BWise increases its commitment to this important
region. The economies of Thailand and other South East Asian countries have
expanded. We see this region as an emerging GRC market due to its regulated
business environment and challenges in complying with international regulations
such as Basel III for banks.'
Mr. Rob van Straten continued, 'There is interest from banks and large
enterprises across the region seeking GRC solutions, such as the BWise Risk
Management, Internal Audit and Compliance solutions, and combining these
initiatives into one integrated GRC platform. The value of our integrated
approach has been recognized by customers, independent analysts and prospective
clients. This has led to quick and high return on investments, while also
increasing compliance and control over risks.'
To contribute to the practical knowledge of implementing integrated GRC, BWise,
together with its local partner, Yip In Tsoi, and consultant partner, Marc
Leipoldt from Global Risk Advisory Services (GRAS), will organize a round table
meeting in Bangkok on January 24. Mr. Danai Wangsiri of Yip In Tsoi, said, 'As
a regional partner of BWise, we are able to serve prospective clients and
support BWise with Asian companies that are highly interested in implementing
GRC software. Now that BWise is also located in Bangkok, we can further
continue to strengthen our commitment to and the development of the GRC market
in Asia.'
