“Compliance in the financial services industry can make or break your business. With SailPoint we can confidently demonstrate compliance with the Financial Conduct Authority. Our automated certification campaigns now take one month to complete – a process that previously took one year.”
— Tari Dogra, Head of Division – IT Service Management, St James’s Place
The results
After searching for a vendor that could help institute strong compliance practices and integrations with key systems, St. James’s Place partnered with SailPoint to build their identity governance program.
