GRC tech specialist ACA Compliance has expanded its European presence with an office in Birmingham, UK. Key to the services offered from the new location will be ACA’s Analysis and Review Centre (ARC).

According to Thomson Reuters, over a third (36%) of global financial services firms now outsource all or part of their compliance function.
