Case Study: Gulf Coast Bank and Trust focuses audits on high-risk areas with AuditBoard's Optro

How Gulf Coast Focused Their Audits on High-Risk Areas

Gulf Coast Bank and Trust, a $3 billion bank headquartered in New Orleans with a national presence in commercial lending, needed to strengthen its internal audit approach as the bank grew. With an audit team of four people, the company looked for a software solution from AuditBoard to help maximize efficiency before adding more employees and to get better reporting on risk.

Gulf Coast selected AuditBoard’s Optro connected risk platform after reviewing several options. The team used it to bring people, processes, and technology into one platform, adjust reporting to gain insights into risk, and focus audits on high-risk areas that matter. Crowe said the platform also helped set the client up for success by giving them the tools and knowledge during implementation.
