The challenge

The bank's legacy monitoring system generated thousands of daily alerts with a false-positive rate above 95%, and the analyst team could not keep pace as payment volumes doubled year on year.

Screening moved to a real-time API against a unified, continuously refreshed watchlist, with explainable match scoring so analysts could clear or escalate hits in seconds rather than minutes.

The result

False positives fell by 62% within two quarters while true-positive detection held steady, and the analyst team cleared its backlog for the first time in two years.
