ViClarity Global CEO Miriam De Dios Woodward joined us on the show to discuss PolicyWorks new name is now ViClarity. But there's more to this name change than meets the eye. Miriam informed us that the compliance consulting firm has gained its new brand to coincide with its expanded subject matter expertise and focus on technology.

“Organizations across industries, including the credit union movement, have begun to realize the benefit of bringing the traditionally disparate functions of matter expertise in governance, risk and compliance (GRC), as well as its focus on technology solutions for GRC governance, risk and compliance together,” Miriam says. “GRC as a cohesive force has also created a need for cross-functional technology to drive greater transparency, efficiency and access to real-time data. This is precisely what we deliver through the ViClarity GRC platform and our GRC consultation services for credit unions.”

The ViClarity GRC platform was developed by the international technology provider of the same name in 2008. PolicyWorks acquired the platform and its support team, based in Ireland, in early 2020. The ViClarity team, led by ViClarity Global CIO John Ogie Sheehy, has remained in place since the acquisition and continues to drive iteration of the technology platform, as well as ViClarity’s European business. By adopting a shared brand name, PolicyWorks and ViClarity are signaling the full integration of the two entities.

Check out our conversation with Miriam and let us know your thoughts.
