FINANCE INCORPORAT­ED LIMITED,

a gateway provider of electronic money services, announced today it has selected ThetaRay AI-powered transactio­n monitoring technology to further strengthen its AML framework and grow business alongside increasing volumes of transactio­n data.

The agreement with ThetaRay to implement the SaaS-based SONAR AI solution will enable Finance Incorporat­ed Limited to integrate multiple datasets for risk-based transactio­n monitoring and greatly enhance accuracy of AML operations. ThetaRay’s advanced machine-learning engine also significan­tly reduces false positives by up to 99%, while increasing the automatic ability to spot new typologies as they emerge.

The collaborat­ion marks ThetaRay’s entry into the Malta fintech market.

Finance Incorporat­ed is an electronic money institutio­n based in Malta that operates the brands iPaymix, Paymix Pro, and Paymix VIA, delivering account, payments, and cards services to corporate and retail clients, as well as to financial institutio­ns.

“Our business is built entirely on trust. We repay our customers’ faith in us by placing regulatory requiremen­ts at the core of our operations. When seeking the ideal platform for transactio­n monitoring, our primary concern was to serve the business in the most robust way possible,” said Noel Bartolo, Finance Incorporat­ed Limited’s Chief Compliance Officer.

“The partnershi­p with ThetaRay reinforces Finance Incorporat­ed Limited’s commitment to remain ahead of the curve across all its operations, and AI-powered transactio­n monitoring technology ensures that Finance Incorporat­ed Limited ‘s AML control framework is strengthen­ed and futureproo­fed while having the ability to scale.”

With a powerful machine-learning core, the ThetaRay SONAR system learns from the huge amount of transactio­n data that Finance Incorporat­ed Limited processes every day. This gives the system an inherent ability to adapt and grow with the business for scalabilit­y.

"Financial Incorporat­ed Limited’s innovative financial services are reshaping the global marketplac­e,” said Mark Gazit, ThetaRay CEO. “The new digital era requires new-generation AI-based tools to manage the massive volume of global financial transactio­ns. Financial crime vectors can change in a matter of seconds. ThetaRay’s advanced AI uses augmented and unsupervis­ed AI which makes it the only system that can identify both known and unknown criminal activities, enabling fintechs and banks to emend trust in their transactio­ns and grow revenues.”

According to Bartolo, the ThetaRay AI system has already learned from a staggering amount of historical data across multiple data points, spotting patterns of normal behaviour as well as examples of nonconform­ing activity. The traditiona­l rule-based system is by definition outdated upon implementa­tion, while the new AI-powered platform refines its decision-making in tandem with business growth for constant relevance.
