The post also emphasizes operational readiness, highlighting the need to upgrade systems, banking relationships, and controls to support daily reconciliation, alongside staff training and process testing before go-live. Grifin references a partnership with consultancy Thistle Initiatives on a “CASS Survival Guide,” suggesting the company may be positioning itself as a specialist in regulatory compliance support, which could enhance its appeal to regulated financial clients and potentially expand advisory or technology-driven revenue opportunities.
