Irrelevant alerts and solution

“Compliance teams face immense pressure to detect financial crime while managing an overwhelming number of alerts. Traditional AML screening can be like searching for a needle in a haystack – compliance teams spend countless hours sifting through false positives to find real risks."

"Our AI acts like a powerful magnet, helping to filter out irrelevant alerts and strengthen our solution," explains Vyacheslav Zholudev, co-founder and CTO of Sumsub. 

AI-powered enhancements

Zholudev added: “The AI-powered enhancements and streamlined case management enable compliance officers to focus on what truly matters – stopping real threats efficiently."

"By minimising false positives and automating reports generation, we’re not only empowering teams with intelligent case management, but also setting a new industry standard for AML compliance.”
