Overview
Ent Credit Union, established in 1957, is the largest member owned credit union in Colorado, serving 21 counties and 430,000 members. Ent strives to improve the financial quality of life of their owner-members with education, better rates, lower fees, and access to the highest quality financial products.
Ent is fast approaching key asset size benchmarks anticipated to result in a heightened level of regulatory expectations and new formal requirements. The prospect of heightened expectations drove a need to deploy a proven platform capable of handling the complex task of turning the credit union’s existing approach to governance, risk, and compliance into a connected, informed, and integrated approach. The platform had to accommodate the first, second, and third-line activities to risk and control management. The decision to use Archer was based on their platform’s ability to help Ent achieve this vision - a role Archer has played with other larger financial institutions.
Ent decided to take an “out-of-the-box” approach for rapid action to implement a robust suite of modules in under 18 months to be ready in advance of the heightened expectations and new formal requirements. To do so, Ent partnered with Crowe LLP as an integral implementation partner. The timeline was aggressive, but one intended to make interconnections between the various Archer use cases Ent needed available and functional immediately. Ent started its journey by implementing Archer Compliance Management and Issues Management, followed quickly by Audit Management and Exam Management and others.
