Lucinity

Iceland a Key Innovator in AML Compliance Software

 

Reykjavik, Iceland -- (SBWIRE) -- 10/17/2022 -- Iceland is an innovative place for startups and the country has a strong track record in terms of pioneering tech such as AML Compliance Software. The innovation culture here is very much focused on two areas, the first being blockchain-driven innovation that is crossing the boundaries between Web3 commerce, gaming and FinTech and the second being the rising number of AML startups. Companies like Lucinity are changing the tools that organisations have to battle financial crime using cutting edge technology, such as artificial intelligence. Iceland is a country that is pushing the boundaries across all elements of tech infrastructure - three Non-Fungible Token (NFT) marketplaces have launched in the past few years alone - and helping to drive development. The country's burgeoning Web3 hub shows just how much more important digital assets are becoming.

Iceland is also a key innovator in the AML Compliance Software and anti-fraud space and the advances in AI-powered technology in this field have been impressive. It's now possible for digital services to verify users with government documents thanks to the huge strides that have been taken by startups in Iceland in terms of automated identity verification. Part of the reason for Iceland's uptick in innovation - according to Lucinity CEO Gudmundur Kristjansson - is because Iceland has both a large and well-connected financial services industry as well as a thriving FinTech scene. The combination is the perfect environment for cutting edge development and innovation in areas like AML Compliance Software.

The pioneering role that Lucinity plays when it comes to AML Compliance Software is clear from the prominence that the firm has in Icelandic innovation culture. Key to this has been not only the expertise at the firm but also the accessibility of the platform. Lucinity has been designed to be very easy to use and to give organisations an effective way to reduce exposure to financial crime. It has a number of key elements that facilitate this, including transaction monitoring and SAR management. The company's focus on ease for efficiency has also led it to add functionality to the platform that provides for improved productivity for businesses that use it, as well as key goals such as reducing alert fatigue in compliance risk monitoring processes.

Lucinity was established in 2018 and has come a long way in a short time thanks to a focused and committed team and the level of expertise at the firm. Today AML Compliance Software is employed on a global level, which is why the business has offices in London, New York, Brussels and Reykjavik. The business has grown quickly but consistently and the focus on values, mission and culture have ensured that the spirit of the team has stayed constant throughout. Lucinity is anchored in robust values that drive both innovation in AML Compliance Software and a culture that celebrates both human and artificial intelligence. These values include the pursuit of excellence as well as human empathy and respect. This is a combination that continues to create the kind of momentum that is putting innovation in Iceland on the map.
