“Financial institutions have long since adopted automated procedures to streamline compliance activities and provide a better customer experience in the onboarding journey. However, many solutions are often inefficient and ineffective due to poor quality of analytics and data,” said Umberto Pardi, Chief Commercial Officer at expert.ai. “Using a hybrid AI approach, financial data and information flows can be comprehensively and accurately monitored, improving accuracy and accelerating decision making to transform KYC processes and automate compliance-related workflows. We are proud that the RegTech review panel recognized the value of our solutions, rewarding the innovative scope that distinguishes our offerings for banks and financial institutions in a highly competitive market.”
