Square Financial Services · Block

Single named owner of three second-line risk domains, run on Trust by Design: production agents covering resilience, vendor security, and privacy serve the whole bank in Slack, grounded in banking regulation and the bank's own policies, with human judgment gates on material decisions. The model replaced two enterprise GRC platforms.
