The robust combination of AI technology, with NICE Actimize’s
expertise in KYC/CDD, reduces customer review times by up to 70 percent
and increases the accuracy of high-risk customer management
NICE Actimize, a NICE (Nasdaq: NICE) business and the leader in
Autonomous Financial Crime Management announces the launch of CDD-X, the
next-generation Know Your Customer/Customer Due Diligence (KYC/CDD)
solution. NICE Actimize CDD-X is the latest addition to the Actimize
Autonomous AML solution set that leverages the power of artificial
intelligence and machine learning to provide more accurate detection and
customer risk scoring to reduce compliance risk. Significant reduction
in operational costs are realized through the innovative use of
visualization and purpose-built intelligent automation to streamline
customer review times by up to 70 percent.
The Power of X-Sight AI
NICE Actimize CDD-X leverages the
secure cloud-based analytics optimization service, X-Sight
ActimizeWatch, to apply machine learning to enhance the accuracy of risk
ratings using the collective intelligence of previous outcomes. New
Predictive Risk Scoring analytics used in CDD-X lead to better high-risk
customer management, enhanced due diligence (EDD), periodic review, and
ongoing monitoring.
These analytics also streamline the onboarding process, critical for
financial services organizations looking to grow their business, by
reducing unnecessary customer friction while providing the opportunity
for better business interaction with their customers. Managing analytics
in the cloud introduces cost-predictability and reduces the spend
previously required to optimize KYC-AML systems.
“NICE Actimize’s CDD-X is a game changer, helping organizations bring
relief to what is currently a massive spend, while improving accuracy
when assessing customer risk. A robust AML program starts with a strong
KYC/CDD process,” said Craig Costigan, CEO, NICE Actimize.
“Regulatory agencies across the globe are encouraging financial
institutions to explore technology innovations incorporating AI and
machine learning to improve their compliance programs, and CDD-X is a
good place to start in any journey to stronger, more cost-effective AML
compliance.”
Additional capabilities of the NICE Actimize CDD-X solution include:
-
Entity Insights – Provides a visual, holistic view of entity
risk for faster, simpler and more precise resolution, offering massive
efficiency gains for analyst teams. Analysts may lack a holistic
customer view and incomplete data, which can lead to incorrect
classification of the customer risk. Enhanced customer profiles in
CDD-X present up-to-date information and risk factors, save time for
the analysts, and offer easy to enhance entity and alert information
for more up to date information such as Beneficial Ownership data.
-
Intelligent Automation – Infused with Actimize expertise, CDD-X
includes embedded automation to streamline tasks related to ultimate
beneficial ownership (UBO), adverse media, data flow with customer
relationship management (CRM) systems, and more.
-
Data Source Library – By enabling a curated set of pre-built
connectors, CDD-X leverages 3rd party risk factors to
increase the accuracy of customer risk ratings during onboarding and
ongoing monitoring to provide more intelligence to analysts.
Additionally, the pre-built connectors make integration simple where
data acquisition and aggregation has traditionally been difficult.
“Increased speed and efficiency in KYC-CDD is sorely needed to reduce
the operational burden of compliance and to support the faster pace of
digital financial services. Just in time, next generation technologies
like intelligent automation are streamlining resource intensive KYC
processes and bringing them into the digital age,” said Neil Katkov,
PhD, Head of Risk, at research and advisory firm Celent.
