Our Philosophy

We aim to produce high quality AML/CFT supervisory software at a pricing that represents an economy of scale, while supporting our customers to enhance compliance with FATF standards.

Appropriateness of Risk Model

We ensure robustness and relevance of our risk model by seeking external reviews from active experienced supervisors and AML/CFT experts from renowned organizations such as the International Monetary Fund or the World Bank, and AML colleges and forums.

We monitor publications and guidance and collect feedback from Strix users and users of other non-Strix bespoke solutions, to inform continued development, ensuring a maximum of compliance, relevance and utility of our software.

Security of the Software

We engage prominent security consultants for external reviews, steering inputs and testing to ensure our software is as reliable, scalable and secure as we can make it.

First-hand supervision experience

We combine direct supervision experience, client feedback, and lessons learned from hundreds of AML/CFT Risk Assessments. Our automated tools reduce the workload for supervisors and provide strategic capabilities. This greatly improves the effectiveness of risk-based supervision.
