New Product Approval Process

Improve time-to-market and compliant efficiency

With MiFID and MaRisk, European and national regulators require approval of new products before they are sold for the first time. In addition, defined criteria such as the monitoring and updating of the target market must be governed consistently throughout the entire life cycle of the products.

LPA software enables you to comply with all requirements in the most comfortable way. The approval of new products and variations as well as the mandatory review and monitoring during the life cycle of the product will be automated, thus shortening the time-to-market enormously.

Our Solution

Automation framework combines content management, product information management and workflow automation in one tool. Over 25 financial institutions worldwide trust in the configuration of product database, product approval workflow and product governance monitoring can be tailored to your needs.
This allows you to flexibly combine new product approval and product governance management in one central cockpit.
