Bring transparency, speed and efficiency to the processes and controls of CASS compliance.
Immediate Accessibility
Improve data accessibility and governance
CASS-regulated financial firms are required to maintain a client assets resolution pack with the ability to retrieve specific documentation immediately or within 48 hours. Workiva enables teams to effectively manage compliance activities through easily traceable and accessible reporting and documentation.
One centralised platform
The Workiva could platform is a single source for preparation, storage and control over CASS Resolution Packs, controls documentation and activity. By managing all related materials in a centralised, accessible system, firms ensure compliance with all CASS requirements.
Retrieve documentation immediately
Audit trail features provide clear evidence of material updates taking place and changes to roles and responsibilities. Export a full audit trail, compare versions and highlight changes throughout the documentation process. Add comments and assign tasks to contributors from within the reporting environment.
Simplified Attestations

Resolution packs must be in place from the moment a firm begins to hold client assets. A simplified and repeatable attestation process with Workiva ensures compliance and reduces the demands on CASS teams.
