SPD Silicon Valley Bank will implement NICE Actimize’s next-generation Suspicious Activity Monitoring solution to detect complex financial crimes while increasing productivity
HOBOKEN, N.J.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Leading the industry with AI-based solutions designed to streamline anti-money laundering operations for global financial institutions, NICE Actimize, a NICE (Nasdaq: NICE) business and the leader in Autonomous Financial Crime Management, was selected by China-based SPD Silicon Valley Bank (SSVB) to update its anti-money laundering strategy with next generation AI-infused transaction monitoring protections. Adopting NICE Actimize’s latest Suspicious Activity Monitoring solution (SAM 9), the update will introduce NICE Actimize’s innovative concept of Autonomous Financial Crime Management to the financial institution’s anti-money laundering compliance efforts.
China-based partner Sunlight China is currently supporting implementation efforts.
NICE Actimize’s latest version of its SAM solution, which will be used in the implementation, combines machine learning analytics for laser-accurate AML detection with robotic process automation, lowering false positives and virtually eliminating the manual search for supporting data and other manual tasks, increasing team productivity, and reducing investigation time overall by up to 70 percent. Leveraging NICE Actimize’s experience in advanced analytics and transaction monitoring solutions, the new SAM solution utilizes automation to reduce human effort and error, and to detect and report sophisticated crime schemes.
Bradley Gao, Chief Operations Officer, SPD Silicon Valley Bank
“SSVB initiated a rigorous, competitive search for a solutions partner to update its anti-money laundering strategy, and our team continued to be impressed with the innovation, professional support, and deep experience that global industry leader NICE Actimize brought to our institution.
