Strix User Conference London – A Milestone Event

✨We are proud to announce the successful completion of our inaugural Strix User Conference, held in London, on the 16th/17th Oct. 2025.

The event brought together 12 Strix superusers from six Authorities – CIMA and CIIPA of Cayman Islands, FSA of Isle of Man, AMSF of Monaco, the Central Bank of The Bahamas, and FNTT of Lithuania, each contributing valuable insights, sharing their experiences, and strengthening collaboration within the Strix community.

Their active participation made the conference an enriching exchange of knowledge and ideas, not only with FTS but between authorities. The event included the presentation of an interesting innovation from #AMSF of a downstream automated system for large-scale inspections of survey submissions for data consistency, a major time savings with a !wow! factor.

This milestone marks an important step in fostering closer partnerships with our users and ensuring that Strix continues to evolve in line with real-world needs and operational priorities.

We extend our sincere thanks to all participants for their in person attendance, engagement, and trust. Your contributions were fundamental in making the event such a success.

We look forward to continuing this dialogue and to welcoming even more partners at the next Strix User Conference.

EBA Consultation on AMLA Methodology – FTS Responses

FTS submitted feedback to the European Banking Authority (EBA) recently as part of their invitation for public comment on its Proposed Regulatory Technical Standards, as part of the EU’s evolving AMLA mandates.

A total of 108 institutions and companies provided feedback.

We attach here our comments, this time WITH DIAGRAMS – which were not possible to include in the EBA format.

On review of the draft methodology:
Strix is well aligned with the proposed methodology. From the level of detail provided thus far by EBA, the new methodology appears to be easily accommodated in Strix as simply another of our offered calculation methods available (AMLA will be the 4th method captured in Strix).

There are many aspects of Strix that make it fit-for-AMLA, and EU authorities specifically would benefit from a ready-to-go solution given the timelines to implement thus far indicated by EBA.
