AML software solutions for leading global brands
What is AML software?
Specialized AML software is designed to help financial institutions comply with strict anti-money laundering regulations. By monitoring transactions, flagging unusual patterns, and reporting suspicious activity, this proactive approach safeguards businesses in a rapidly evolving financial environment.
AML software reduces manual workloads by analyzing vast transaction data to identify potential illicit activities. Using rule-based systems, AI, machine learning, and advanced data analysis to automate fraud detection, flagging suspicious behavior for prompt investigation is easier than ever.
Core components of AML software
SymphonyAI delivers end-to-end AML software solutions encompassing every stage of the customer lifecycle.
Transaction Monitoring
Effective transaction monitoring within AML software strengthens compliance while reducing exposure to financial crime–detecting unusual or suspicious transitions in real-time. With robust predefined rules and machine learning models, SymphonyAI’s AML software continuously analyzes financial activity against known risk factors to masterfully identify deviations from normal behavior.
When anomalies arise, SymphonyAI’s software immediately flags them as suspicious, triggering alerts for rapid review. Enhancing traditional monitoring capabilities, SymphonyAI offers SensaAI for AML—an AI-driven solution leveraging supervised machine learning to detect hidden transaction risks that rules alone cannot.
Customer Due Diligence (CDD)
Accurately assess and manage customer risk with comprehensive AML software that streamlines customer due diligence (CDD). Verify customer identities, analyze transaction patterns, and detect potential criminal activity without increasing manual workloads.
SymphonyAI automates processes by collecting customer data, identifying transaction patterns, and exposing risks often associated with customers. Integrating CDD with dynamic Know Your Customer (KYC) capabilities, SymphonyAI delivers risk scores that adjust as customer behavior evolves. Real-time onboarding and continuous risk assessment ensure frictionless user experiences while adhering to regulatory requirements.
Sanctions Screening
Reduce false positives and enhance compliance using AML software. SymphonyAI’s AML solutions ensure financial institutions do not inadvertently conduct business with entities on government sanctions lists; perform sanctions screenings, and cross-reference customer data against global databases.
Staying compliant doesn’t have to come at a cost. Go beyond basic sanctions checks with software that includes advanced features like Adverse Media Screening (also known as Negative News Screening) and Politically Exposed Persons (PEP) screening. Go a step further with SensaAI for Sanction—SymphonyAI’s screening software with an AI Overlay upgrade that significantly increases sanctions match accuracy and dramatically reduces false positives.
Investigations
Streamline AML investigations with tools that improve consistency and regulation. Sensa Investigation Hub—SymphonyAI’s AI-powered enterprise case management system—provides a subject-centric view that prioritizes and simplifies the handling of suspicious activity alerts.
Leverage advanced generative AI and support investigators at every step with Sensa Copilot. From summarizing investigations and querying complex transactions to conducting web searches and generating SAR filings, Sensa Copilot ensures every investigation is thorough and efficient.
SAR filing
Save valuable time, conserve resources, and simplify compliance. Refine investigations with Sensa Investigation Hub, automate the generation of Suspicious Activity Reports (SARs) for financial institutions, and ensure relevant details are meticulously captured by Sensa Copilot.
SymphonyAI’s solutions help maintain compliance with AML regulations from the Financial Crime Enforcement Network (FinCEN) and Financial Conduct Authority (FCA).
How does AML software help financial institutions?
Streamlining compliance efforts
Reduce the burden of AML compliance with AI-driven AML software. Designed to automate the time-consuming aspects of transaction monitoring, due diligence, and report filing, AML software automation cuts down on workloads for compliance teams while minimizing human errors. Free up valuable resources and concentrate on critical tasks, from investigating suspicious activities to bolstering risk management strategies. Empower institutions to operate efficiently with the support of SymphonyAI’s most comprehensive AML solution.
Enhancing detection of financial crimes
AML software’s primary purpose is identifying financial crimes, including money laundering, fraud, and terrorist financing before they cause serious harm. By applying advanced ML and predictive analytics, AML software uncovers patterns in data that signal potential wrongdoing. With rapid, accurate analysis of large datasets, SymphonyAI’s anti-money laundering solutions highlight anomalies often overlooked by manual reviews. Early detection prevents minor threats from escalating to major issues, ensuring businesses stay within the bounds of the law.
Reducing false positives
A major challenge in AML compliance involves numerous false positive alerts–transactions flagged as suspicious that ultimately prove legitimate. AML software addresses this issue by refining detection methods and applying highly accurate algorithms to identify genuine threats. By reducing false positives, compliance teams can concentrate on authentic risks, increasing operational efficiency and facilitating a team’s approach to regulatory adherence.
Supporting efficient investigations
When suspicious activity is flagged by AML software, compliance teams are tasked with investigating the issue further. Advanced software solutions provide investigators with the tools to quickly assess the risk level and gather relevant information. Through intuitive dashboards, case management systems, and detailed transaction history, AML software helps investigators make informed decisions faster. This enables financial institutions to act swiftly and effectively to mitigate potential risks.
Ensuring Continuous Monitoring
Money laundering and other financial crimes are not static—they evolve over time as criminals develop new tactics to evade detection. AML software is continuously updated with the latest threat intelligence and regulatory changes, ensuring that software accurately detects emerging risks. By providing real-time monitoring and constant updates, AML software ensures financial institutions stay ahead of the curve and always comply with evolving regulations.
