Chartis Research Again Names ACTICO a Category Leader for AML Transaction Monitoring 2026

Friedrichshafen/Chicago/Singapore, Sept. 09, 2026 – ACTICO, a leading provider of software for regulatory compliance, credit risk management, and decision automation, has once again been named a Category Leader in the Chartis RiskTech Quadrant® for AML Transaction Monitoring Solutions 2026. The recognition from Chartis Research reflects the strength of ACTICO Anti-Money Laundering, an AI-powered solution that enables banks, insurers, and financial services providers to combat money laundering efficiently and in compliance with regulatory requirements.

The report ranks ACTICO among the world’s leading providers of AML transaction monitoring solutions. Its Category Leader status reflects both the company’s strong market standing and its commitment to combining regulatory software with explainable, controlled, and sovereign AI for compliance.

Top scores across all evaluation dimensions

Across all seven criteria in the “Completeness of Offering” category, ACTICO received Best-in-Class or Advanced Capabilities ratings, with nothing lower. The company also improved on its previous year’s results, particularly through advances in workflow automation.

ACTICO earned Best-in-Class ratings for Risk Typology Modeling, Analytical Modeling, Model Quality & Validation, and Workflow Automation. Chartis Research awarded Advanced Capabilities ratings for Data & System Integrations, Solution Packaging & Deployment, and Focus on Speed, Volume & Performance.

High-performance support across the AML monitoring process

The assessment confirms that ACTICO Anti-Money Laundering provides high-performance support across the entire AML monitoring process, from scenario modeling and simulation using production data to audit-ready documentation. At one customer, for example, the solution processes more than a billion payments a year. It can be deployed as SaaS, in a private cloud, or on premises.

Beyond banking: ACTICO Insurance AML

Beyond banking, one of ACTICO’s distinctive strengths is its dedicated focus on the insurance industry. With ACTICO Insurance AML, the company provides insurance-specific typologies and a data model covering roles, policies, and non-monetary events, capabilities that general-purpose providers rarely offer as standard. Insurers are coming under added regulatory pressure as a result of the EU Anti-Money Laundering Package.

Make Better Compliance Decisions with Rules, GenAI, and AI Agents

ACTICO combines rules, machine learning, generative AI, and AI agents within an auditable decision framework. Specialized AI agents take on research, analysis, and documentation tasks in areas such as adverse media screening, AML investigations, and FIU reporting, while the final decision remains with the compliance expert. Small, specialized language models built for compliance also strengthen institutions’ data sovereignty. They can be up to 100 times smaller and up to 50 times cheaper to operate than general-purpose models, and they run either in an institution’s own data center or in a sovereign cloud environment. That is how ACTICO brings the speed and reach of AI to compliance without sacrificing control or auditability.
