Risk-Based Profiling
Advanced profiling to help financial institutions meet regulatory standards and safeguard against risks.
What is Risk-Based Profiling
Risk-Based Profiling empowers organisations to proactively manage risks such as money laundering and terrorist financing. Fully integrated with Prospero’s DetectX® Predictive Analytics Platform, it combines machine learning with dynamic KPIs and KRIs to support compliance, fraud prevention, and intelligent risk management.
In today’s regulatory environment, organisations must proactively manage financial crime risks such as money laundering and terrorist financing. DetectX® Risk-Based Profiling empowers financial institutions with advanced tools for creating, evaluating, and optimising client risk profiles in real time, helping meet the standards of the Financial Action Task Force (FATF) and other regulatory requirements. By calculating key risk and performance indicators (KRIs and KPIs), Risk-Based Profiling delivers actionable insights into each client’s risk profile, ensuring efficient, transparent, and compliant risk management.
