Goldleaf Launches Vendor Compliance Management Solution
New Service Provides Financial Institutions With A Single Source to Acquire and Manage All Vendor Compliance Due Diligence and On-going Monitoring Documentation

Brentwood, TN —September 14th , 2005 – Goldleaf Technologies today announced the launch of its Vendor Compliance Management Service providing financial institutions with a single source to acquire all available compliance due diligence and ongoing monitoring documentation for each of the institution's vendors. Through an agreement with Digital Compliance, LLC, Goldleaf can allow financial institutions web based access to complete FFIEC, FDIC, OCC, OTS, NCUA based vendor compliance packages for each of their vendors.

“Not only do institutions face pressure from examiners to closely monitor their vendors, but due to the recent events of data loss it is more imperative than ever to make sure vendors are doing what it takes to protect financial institution data” says Paul McCulloch, Goldleaf President and CEO. “Should a vendor lose consumer data, the potential reputation and hard costs to a community financial institution is too great to be ignored and can only be mitigated by doing the proper due diligence and vendor monitoring”. “Our agreement with Digital Compliance allows Goldleaf clients with point and click access to complete vendor compliance packages in seconds as opposed to the current structure of weeks or months of repeatedly calling some vendors pleading for the due diligence documentation examiners expect to see”.

Digital Compliance CEO Brad Putnam said “we are obviously delighted to be working with a company as dynamic and client centric as Goldleaf Technologies”. “We look forward to helping financial institutions easily acquire current and complete due diligence documentation for not only Goldleaf, but any other vendors the institution may add to the service”.
