NICE Actimize, Recognized as the RiskTech100® Financial Crime Risk Management
Category Winner for the 2nd Year in a Row, Ranked Top Ten in 2017 Chartis RiskTech100®
This year’s RiskTech 100® rankings focused on solutions,
industry segments and success factors
NICE Actimize, a NICE (Nasdaq:NICE) business and the industry's largest and broadest provider of a single financial
crime, risk and compliance software platform for the financial services industry, has been recognized by Chartis as the single
category leader for Financial Crime Risk Management (FCRM) in its recently released 2017 RiskTech100®
rankings. In addition, NICE Actimize was ranked #10 in the comprehensive list of Top 100 global vendors in risk and compliance
technology. Chartis, part of Incisive Media group which includes leading media brands such as Risk and Waters
Technology, is a leading provider of research and analysis on the global market for risk technology.
“To compete successfully in the rapidly changing risk technology marketplace, vendors need suitable product, technology and
business strategies,” said Peyman Mestchian, Managing Partner at Chartis. “New and innovative vendors are finding creative
solutions to complex risk management problems, applying artificial intelligence, advanced natural language processing, Big Data
infrastructures, and robotic process automation to a variety of compliance activities.”
The Chartis RiskTech100® ranking assessment criteria comprise six equally weighted categories: functionality, core technology,
strategy, customer satisfaction, market presence and innovation. This year’s RiskTech 100® rankings focused
on solutions, industry segments and success factors. The RiskTech100® only includes companies that sell their own risk management
software products and solutions.
“In this highly competitive market, we are pleased to be ranked as a market leader in financial crime risk management,” said Joe
Friscia, president of NICE Actimize. “We are unique from the competition in being market-driven and laser-focused on financial
crime and compliance, creating technologies to meet and anticipate market demands that reduce operational risk and lower costs for
our customers. We enable our clients to tackle their financial crime needs in a unified manner.”
According to the report, expenditures on risk technology reveal an interesting trend – a shift from “knee-jerk” risk IT
investment to “smart” investment within the past 12 months.
