Know Your Vendors.
Control Your Risk.
Nigerian financial institutions rely on hundreds of third-party vendors — from payment processors to cloud providers. Atheris gives you complete visibility into vendor risk with AI-powered assessments built for African regulatory requirements.
Why Nigerian institutions struggle with third-party risk
Spreadsheet Chaos
Vendor assessments trapped in Excel files and email threads. No centralised view of your third-party risk exposure across hundreds of vendors.
Regulatory Pressure
CBN circulars, NDPA 2023, and SEC guidelines demand formal third-party risk programs — but most institutions lack the tools to comply.
Local Vendor Complexity
Nigerian vendors often lack international certifications. You need risk assessments tailored to the local market, not global templates.
Hidden Concentration Risk
Multiple departments onboarding the same vendors independently — creating invisible single points of failure across your institution.
Complete vendor lifecycle management
From onboarding to offboarding, Atheris covers every stage of your vendor relationship — with automation purpose-built for African financial institutions.
AI-Powered Risk Scoring
Automatically score vendors using 50+ risk indicators including financial health, cyber posture, regulatory standing, and local reputation data from Nigerian business registries.
Vendor Due Diligence Portal
Self-service portal where vendors complete risk questionnaires, upload certifications, and provide evidence — reducing your assessment turnaround from weeks to days.
Continuous Monitoring
Real-time monitoring of vendor risk signals including news alerts, CAC filing changes, financial distress indicators, and cybersecurity threat intelligence for Nigerian and African vendors.
Contract & SLA Tracking
Centralised contract repository with automated renewal alerts, SLA compliance tracking, and performance scorecards tied to risk outcomes.
Concentration Risk Analysis
Visualise vendor dependencies across business units, services, and geographies. Identify single points of failure before they become incidents.
Regulatory Compliance Engine
Pre-built assessment templates aligned with CBN Outsourcing Guidelines, NDPA 2023 data processor requirements, SEC regulations, and NAICOM directives for insurance vendors.
Built different from global TPRM tools
Global vendors like Archer and Diligent treat third-party risk as a one-size-fits-all problem. We don't.
Nigerian Regulatory Templates
Pre-configured questionnaires for CBN Outsourcing Guidelines, NDPA data processor assessments, and SEC vendor requirements. No need to build compliance templates from scratch.
African Vendor Intelligence
Our AI pulls from local data sources — CAC filings, Nigerian news outlets, and African business registries — not just Dun & Bradstreet. Get risk signals that matter in your market.
Naira-Denominated Risk Quantification
Quantify vendor risk exposure in Naira with models calibrated for Nigerian market volatility, FX risk, and local economic conditions — not US-centric benchmarks.
Integrated GRC Ecosystem
Vendor risks automatically flow into your enterprise risk register, trigger compliance tasks, and create audit findings. No standalone silos — everything connected in one platform.
Vendor risk management in four steps
Onboard
Register vendors, assign risk tiers, and send automated questionnaires through the self-service portal.
Assess
AI scores vendor responses against 50+ risk indicators. Flag high-risk vendors for enhanced due diligence.
Monitor
Continuous monitoring alerts you to changes in vendor risk posture — financial distress, cyber incidents, regulatory actions.
Report
Generate board-ready reports on vendor risk exposure, concentration risk, and regulatory compliance status.
