An all-in-one risk and compliance ecosystem built by practitioners, for practitioners. Secure, scalable and designed to support strong governance across Australian financial services.
The CRS Distinction: CRS Certus brings together 25+ years of regulatory, risk and compliance expertise with established ISO and APRA frameworks and technology-enabled oversight, helping organisations embed effective governance into everyday operations.

CRS Certus is a governance, risk and compliance (GRC) platform designed for regulated organisations. Built by compliance practitioners, it brings obligations, risks, controls, workflows, incidents, breaches, complaints and reporting into one integrated platform.
Unlike fragmented compliance tools, CRS Certus creates a clear line of sight between regulatory obligations, operational controls and Board reporting, supporting connected, evidence-based governance across the organisation.
Many compliance platforms operate primarily as workflow and record-keeping tools. CRS Certus was developed by governance, risk and compliance professionals with experience across ASIC, APRA-regulated entities and complex financial services organisations.
The platform is built around a practical governance model:
This creates a connected, evidence-based governance framework, rather than a collection of disconnected compliance tools and registers.

CRS Certus is backed by the Compliance Risk Services (CRS) advisory team. Organisations can use the platform independently or engage CRS specialists for implementation, governance design, compliance reviews, regulatory support and ongoing optimisation.
This combination of technology and specialist expertise enables organisations to strengthen governance capability while retaining the level of support that suits their business.
