NEW YORK and S-HERTOGENBOSCH, Netherlands, 2013-01-24 09:36 CET (GLOBE
NEWSWIRE) --
BWise, a NASDAQ OMX company and a global leader in Governance, Risk Management
and Compliance (GRC) software, announced today that it was selected by Sanoma
Corporation, a leading European consumer and learning media group. The company
selected BWise to support it with their internal control and internal audit
processes. With the BWise GRC Platform in place for internal control and
internal audit, Sanoma is able to streamline its processes and work more
efficiently through the use of one single integrated system.
As a consumer and learning media company, Sanoma brings information,
experiences, education and entertainment to millions of people. The group
employs nearly 11,000 professionals in twenty countries. In 2011, the group's
restated net sales totaled EUR 2.4 billion. Sanoma shares are listed on the
NASDAQ OMX exchange in Helsinki, Finland.
Robert Pijselman, CEO of BWise, said, 'Sanoma selected BWise due to our
combination of a straight forward, down to earth and rapid implementation
approach. We advise companies that start on a GRC journey to articulate a
vision, but start with a tactical approach that helps them to quickly gain
benefits in optimizing the current protocols around governance, risk and
compliance. After delivering the first successes we then further execute on our
plan to lower the cost of compliance, while enhancing the overall visibility on
opportunities and risks that the company faces.'
BWise, recently acquired by NASDAQ OMX, is expanding its market share in the
Nordic countries with its market leading integrated GRC solution. As part of

number of Nordic companies choosing BWise as their preferred integrated GRC
software solution. We believe there is one version of the truth at businesses,
where organizations achieve their strategic objectives faster and with a risk
appetite that is clearly understood by all stakeholders, supporting them on
their GRC Journey to achieve more transparency by providing superior technology
and best in class services.'
