Rochdale + Paragon

The Rochdale Paragon Group, LLC, was formed in 2016 through a merger between The Rochdale Group and The Paragon Group. Rochdale, founded in 2006, has been a leader in enterprise risk management, strategic planning, governance, lending support, and other consulting services for financial institutions. Paragon, founded in 1990, has been a leader in vendor management, enterprise risk management, compliance audits, strategic services and governance assessments for financial institutions. The combination offers clients a total eGRC solution, with a broader range of advice, analytics and solutions specifically designed to meet the risk management, strategy and assurance needs of the financial industry. Rochdale Paragon Group understands the challenges financial institutions face – the responsibilities and pressures they have and the vast amount of information through which they must navigate. To that end, the combined firm has created a unique partnership which offers seamless professional services assistance and corresponding software solutions. The software, apogee iQ, is managed by a software company by the same name, jointly owned by Rochdale Paragon Group, Horsetail Technologies, and UpStreme, Inc. apogee iQ builds on the success of these partners but has re-invented how services and systems are offered. Like the financial institutions it serves, the organization is focused on one thing – meeting the needs of tomorrow, today.
