Operational Risk & Regulation (www.risk.net/operational-risk-and-regulation) (formerly OpRisk & Compliance) readers once again ranked Oracle Financial Services Software as a leader for compliance software based on the publication’s 2010 Annual Compliance Software Survey.

The publication’s readers named Oracle (including Sun) as a leading vendor across seven of the survey’s eight compliance software categories. No other vendor achieved this distinction in the 2010 survey.

Oracle ranked first for governance, risk and compliance (GRC) software products and ranked second for the overall Compliance 20, as well as in the anti-money laundering (AML), Sarbanes-Oxley, and regulatory reporting solution categories.

The survey results also recognized Oracle in the compliance monitoring and control and anti-fraud product categories and recognized Oracle’s Sun products in the e-mail archiving, data storage and recovery tools category.

Operational Risk & Regulation compiles its compliance software rankings based on the results of a survey of its readers from financial institutions around the globe.

Respondents selected their top five companies in eight compliance product categories: AML; anti-fraud; GRC; Sarbanes-Oxley; compliance monitoring and control; regulatory reporting; spreadsheet products; and e-mail archiving, data storage and reporting.
