Australia's most comprehensive legal obligations register and alerting solution wins prestigious award

LexisNexis Regulatory Compliance Wins Australian Business Award 2017 for Product Excellence

Sydney, 16 August 2017: LexisNexis^® Regulatory Compliance has been recognised as an ABA100 Winner in The Australian Business Awards 2017 for Product Excellence.

The Australian Business Award for Product Excellence recognises products and services of exceptional quality that offer a point of difference from their competitors.

LexisNexis Regulatory Compliance has been recognised for its ability to transform compliance-based business practices and end user experiences.

Myfanwy Wallwork, Executive Director – Regulatory Compliance, LexisNexis said the award recognises the team's achievements in developing a product that empowers businesses to take control of their regulatory risk with actionable content and practical guidance across all Australian jurisdictions.

"Businesses struggle to keep pace with regulatory change and they cannot simply pick and choose which regulations they want to comply with.

"Traditional legal registers comprise long lists of legislation and regulations and the content provided is both static and often in legalese. We saw a need to create a solution that is current and comprehensive with the ability to be understood by all parts of the business," Ms Wallwork added.

The Australian Business Awards program provides notable opportunities for high-performing organisations that implement world-class business initiatives and develop innovative products and services to be acknowledged and honoured for their achievements both nationally and internationally.

"The Australian Business Awards are proud to acknowledge the role of leading corporate, government and non-government organisations for implementing innovative, well-managed high-performing business initiatives and for the research and development of their innovative products and services," Australian Business Awards Program Director, Ms Tara Johnston, said.

This award builds on previous accolades for LexisNexis Regulatory Compliance in 2017, including being recognised in the Business Services category at the 2017 NSW iAwards and placement on the Anthill Magazine 'SMART 100' Index for 2017, reflecting a wide business recognition of a valued and necessary product.
