An easy-to-use AML solution that allows financial institutions to manage risk, reduce manual processes and comply with regulations.
Highly publicized fines imposed on banks and money services businesses (MSBs) for allowing criminals to use their institutions to launder money reinforces the importance of having a proper anti-money laundering (AML) program.
To help financial institutions comply and evolve as regulations tighten, Alessa offers an end-to-end AML solution that includes due diligence, sanctions screening, transaction monitoring and automated regulatory reporting.
The solution detects and reports suspicious activities, proactively resolve and identify high risks entities, screen transactions in real-time to reduce the risk of illicit activities – all without increasing the effort and staff to maintain compliance. Features of the solution include:
Real-time risk intelligence during onboarding so you know who you are doing business with
Monitor all transactions to intercept suspicious activities for investigation
Real-time and periodic screening to detect high-risk entities and activities
Automated creation, validation and e-filing of SARs, CTRs, STRs for various jurisdictions
Realistic assessment of risks based on entity profile and activity that is configurable
Workflows, case management that engages the entire organization in compliance
Alessa includes APIs for integration with onboarding systems to verify identities and search sanctions, politically exposed persons (PEPs), OFAC, and proprietary lists in real-time. Results are used to update the risk associated with an entity.
Alessa leverages data from various sources to create a risk score. Risk factors and weights are all configurable by the organization to match their risk appetite and tolerance. Periodic reviews are managed by workflows and scores are updated based on the entities’ activities.
Alessa monitors every transaction, including cash deposits, wires and checks, to detect suspicious activities. With this holistic view, any alerts are sent to the appropriate personnel for further investigation, remediation and reporting.
By learning from historical data, Alessa is able to detect suspicious deviations from normal behavior. Anomaly detection is also combined with rules-based analytics and entity risk scores to reduce false positives and prioritize investigations.
Configure the system to learn how investigations are handled and then reapply those decisions to future alerts and cases. This highly configurable feature reduces workloads and repetitive decisions.
Alessa offers automated regulatory reporting for currency transaction reports (CTRs), suspicious activity reports (SARs) and suspicious transaction reports (STRs).
Reports are auto-populated, validated and electronically submitted to regulators across multiple jurisdictions, including FinCEN and FINTRAC. goAML is also supported.
Alessa integrates with existing systems to detect suspicious activities, automate processes, reduce false-positives, decrease repetitive tasks and engage the entire organization in a culture of compliance.
