This Suite Allows Clients to Focus Less on Data Management and More on
Compliance Work
KNOXVILLE, Tenn., Aug. 25 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- ERS
Group, SOURCECORP's (Nasdaq: SRCP) leading authority on matters of litigation
and expert witness testimony announced today the release of the 2004 Community
Reinvestment Act (CRA) Peer Databases and Rankings in RiskExec(TM), a suite of
regulatory compliance software tools.
With the release of these 2004 CRA Peer tables and rankings in
RiskExec(TM), ERS Group becomes the first firm in the nation to enable their
financial clients a full review of lending and competitive performance in both
small business and small farm lending for 2004 -- both nationally and in
specific geographies. The importance of these rankings is underscored by the
current scrutiny of lenders for potential neglect of underserved markets. The
Community Reinvestment Act, in part, requires lenders to reach out to both
low-and-moderate income neighborhoods, just as these institutions reach out to
middle-and-upper income neighborhoods.
"Our ability to quickly provide the data to our RiskExec(TM) clients
underscores our commitment to client service and to helping ensure that our
clients are in possession of the information they need to chart their course
for the balance of 2005 and 2006. Releasing these rankings so quickly after
the data has been provided by the federal government is a distinct advantage
of RiskExec(TM)," stated Anurag Agarwal, Principal, ERS Group. "RiskExec(TM)
enables us to launch these types of databases for clients within days of
release and to do so seamlessly for our clients. Our clients need only log
into the systems to receive the full benefit, since there are no downloads or
updates required on their part. We will also post the 2004 HMDA Peer
Databases at a similar pace once that information is released by the
government."
The RiskExec software suite currently includes geocoding, mapping, and all
manners of data visualization -- from interactive maps to peer rankings to
tables & charts -- as well as executive and regulatory reporting for all
facets of Home Mortgage Disclosure Act (HMDA), Community Reinvestment Act
(CRA), and Home Ownership Equity Protection Act (HOEPA), including high cost
loan analyses.
