Icelandic challenger bank indó has turned to technology vendor Lucinity for anti-money laundering (AML) compliance software.
The tie-up will see indó use Lucinity’s Transaction Monitoring and Case Manager solutions.
Lucinity’s AML solution uses artificial intelligence (AI) to complement human expertise, enabling compliance teams to take advantage of current AML procedures and make better judgements.
The technology vendor claims that its solutions have helped various banks and fintechs enhance their compliance productivity by more than 50%.
Set up in 2018, indó is said to be the country’s first neobank.
In February 2022, the challenger bank emerged from stealth with a $4.5m seed investment and secured a licence from the Central Bank of Iceland to operate as a savings bank.
