Lucinity Closes a $17 Million Series B Investment Round

 

Reykjavik, Iceland -- (SBWIRE) -- 08/12/2022 -- in a Series B funding round. With an AML software platform that promises to effectively address the global issue of financial crime, Lucinity has received a lot of international exposure which has led to the backing of some major partners who made the latest funding round possible. These include Keen Venture Partners who said they "jumped on a plane" when they heard about the Series B funding round and Venturing, as well as a number of existing investors such as Crowberry Capital and Karma Ventures. Experian was also part of the $17 million Series B funding round - the global credit reporting company has been in partnership with Lucinity developing next-generation ongoing Know Your Business (KYB) and risk assessments. This is just one of the recent partnerships entered into by Lucinity - another includes Seon, which is centered around joint anti-money laundering and fraud prevention solutions.

The market for AML software is strong, not just in the Nordics but other key locations such as North America and the Asia Pacific. There is an appetite to invest in companies that have the tools to help organizations better tackle problems such as money laundering. Lucinity's AML software is augmented by artificial intelligence and has already achieved proven results, helping various banks and FinTechs increase their compliance productivity by over 50%. Crucially, Lucinity's platform simplifies complex and noisy data, providing clear insights that can be used to fight financial crime, rather than spending hours trying to understand the data.

The business continues to work with a range of customers, from Tier-1 banks to FinTechs, not only providing highly effective anti-money laundering solutions but also solving productivity and efficiency issues too.
