Westmarch Securities scales AML for growth
How Westmarch Securities worked with us on scales AML for growth.
We went from an overnight batch to instant screening without losing a single true match. It changed how fast we can onboard.Tara Weber, Chief Technology Officer, Westmarch Securities
The challenge
Sanctions screening ran on overnight batches, so onboarding decisions lagged a full day and the screening lists were perpetually out of date against fast-moving designations.

The result
