Chartis Research ranks ACTICO as a Category Leader in AML Transaction Monitoring

Chartis Research has released its 2025 report “AML Transaction Monitoring Solutions, 2025: Quadrant Update”. The report offers an updated and expanded view of the AML vendor landscape. 

Following a deep dive into ACTICO’s AML software and company capabilities, Chartis has placed ACTICO in the Category Leader Quadrant, recognising it as a major player in the AML space. 

Why did ACTICO’s AML solution make it into the Category Leader Quadrant?

Chartis analysts evaluated ACTICO’s AML solution across seven categories and awarded only top-tier scores — placing ACTICO exclusively in the highest bands: “Advanced Capabilities” and “Best-in-Class.”

That’s great news for compliance and IT teams in banks, insurers, and financial service providers: the evaluation confirms the strong functionality, high performance, and flexible implementation options they count on in day-to-day operations. 

Best-in-Class for speed, volume and performance

Customers appreciate ACTICO AML for the speed and performance, especially when processing large data volumes — a strength that earned a Best-in-Class rating from the analysts.

Best-in-Class for ACTICO’s AML modeling approach 

In all three modeling categories — risk typology modelling, analytical modeling, and model quality & validation — ACTICO was recognised as a vendor with strong and automated AML transaction monitoring.  

The software uses rule-based and graphically modelled logic to screen transactions, flag anomalies, and run complex scenarios — delivering precision, transparency, and auditability.

Advanced capabilities for seamless integration and deployment 

ACTICO’s AML solution was awarded “Advanced Capabilities” in three key categories: data and system integration, workflow automation, and packaging and deployment. This recognition highlights the strength of its architecture — including robust APIs that integrate with other systems including core banking systems, workflows designed for automation, and AI-readiness across the platform. With flexible deployment options — SaaS, on-premises, or in private cloud environments — the solution adapts to a wide range of IT strategies.

More than technology: Recognition driven by industry trust

Importantly, this assessment goes beyond technical features. It reflects the broader picture of ACTICO’s role in the financial and insurance industry — including the trust and satisfaction of our customers. Their feedback and endorsement contributed significantly to this recognition. 

We sincerely thank everyone involved in the evaluation process — especially our customers and partners who shared their experiences with the Chartis analyst team. 

“ACTICO’s Category Leader placement in our AML TMS quadrant reflects several key factors:  
– a mature, data-driven model development approach 
– AI-driven analytical modeling capabilities 
– rapid transaction processing speed 
– flexible reporting capabilities that provide a feedback loop to facilitate ongoing scenario improvement.  
 ACTICO’s robust model development and enhancement capabilities, coupled with strong analytical tools and solid performance, result in a combination that both compliance leaders and regulators view as increasingly important.”
