The Most Solvent Bank in Europe Uses AuraPortal for their Process Management

In the stress tests carried out in banks belonging to the European Union, Banca March has gained the top position by a considerable difference. This achievement has most certainly been aided by the use of AuraPortal’s BPMS

Woburn (Boston), MA, July 20, 2011 - AuraPortal (www.auraportal.com), a global provider of Business Process Management (BPM) software, has announced that the European bank Banca March, a client of AuraPortal, has achieved the highest valuation in this year's stress tests, as it did last year.
