New York, March 7, 2022: MCO (MyComplianceOffice), a global provider of conduct risk and compliance technology, today announced the execution of an agreement for the acquisition of Schwab Compliance Technologies (SCT). SCT serves over 700 clients providing a software as a service (SaaS) solution that automates asks associated with monitoring employee trading activity and efficiently administering a firm's Code of Ethics.
The acquisition will:
- Bring together a highly complementary set of products, customers and employees to accelerate MCO growth.
- Ensure that SCT clients and staff are part of a company dedicated to expanding and investing in this market.

Brian Fahey, CEO, MCO, said: “We are excited to welcome SCT, its team and customers to the MCO family. Following the deal close, this acquisition will be a great fit as we share many values, and our teams share a common vision. First and foremost, a commitment to support our customers as they navigate the increasingly complex and demanding field of conduct risk and conflict of interest compliance. We believe that, by combining SCT’s client experience and wide domain knowledge with MCO’s functionality-rich technology platform, we can bring together the best of both firms’ offerings, ensuring our customers benefit from best-in-class KYE compliance.”
Rumi Kuli, Director, SCT adds: “With MCO’s commitment and investment in this space combined with its culture and technology focus, we believe our team and clients will be the ultimate beneficiaries of this acquisition.
