AML Software Improves Compliance Decisions
Anti-money Laundering (AML) describes processes that need to be in place to comply with regulatory obligations. AML is intended to ensure that money laundering is identified and prevented. AML refers to all efforts involved in preventing money laundering, such as stopping criminals from becoming customers and monitoring transactions for suspicious activity. KYC falls under the larger umbrella term of AML. It refers to customer identification and screening.
AML Compliance Software including KYC and Transaction Monitoring with Artificial Intelligence
An AML software helps companies largely automate their anti-money laundering measures and the rules within the software typically determine whether a money laundering risk exists. Artificial intelligence (AI) methods are increasingly coming into play. Machine learning plays to its strengths, particularly in the areas of AML, KYC, and transaction monitoring. The technology uses data from money laundering cases previously resolved to identify future cases more accurately and avoid false positives.
Key Components of an AML compliance programme
Customer Risk Classification for the AML-KYC Process
Factors like transaction behaviour, customer category or PEP property all determine the risk of a business relationship. The risk classification is a fixed component of the anti-money laundering and KYC process.
KYC: Customer Identification & Monitoring
Anti-money laundering laws require customers to be identified and monitored in line with the KYC principle. The KYC check is a core component of AML, which consists of establishing the customer’s identity and verifying the origin of assets and business behaviour.
Customer Screening Against Sanctions-, PEP- and Adverse Media Lists
During onboarding, all new client data must be cross-checked with sanctions, PEP and adverse media lists so that companies can check whether the client base includes any at-risk individuals or PEPs. Monitoring is ongoing, usually even daily, throughout the business relationship.
AML Transaction Monitoring
When monitoring payments, the AML transaction software is tasked with determining whether payments are anomalous in any way, for example transfers for unusual amounts, pass-through transactions and/or payments linked to sanctioned banks. Any anomaly must be clarified by the money laundering officer.

AML KYC solutions for companies from the financial sector
Banks and Insurers Have Differing Requirements When It Comes to an AML Application
Financial sector companies must comply with AML requirements. However, their requirements differ depending on the bank type, size, internationality and industry.
Major Banks, Retail and Universal Banks
Banks with numerous customers and transactions need a high-performing AML software, which can also cope with peak periods, e.g. the turn of the year.
Private Banks, Mortgage Banks, Special Financiers
Clients of these banks often have complex asset or financing structures. Here, it is important for the AML software to be able to map complexity in the rules and adapt the rules as required or add new rules at any time.
Insurance Companies
Insurers face the daily challenge of having to check their customer data against sanctions and PEP lists. They have massive amounts of data from their customers
and contractual partners, such as damage filers and other claimants. With high volumes of data, it is particularly important to reduces false positives
to a minimum.
