RISK-MANAGEMENT TECHNOLOGY
SAS has launched a new anti-money laundering solution along with the introduction of its Financial Services Practice. The anti-money laundering solution will enable financial institutions to detect and report criminal financial activities in order to reduce risk and meet government regulations. The solution gathers information from different data sources, transforms the appropriate data into usable knowledge, identifies potential money-laundering activity and reports back on the results. End users can also modify and prioritize anti-money laundering detection logic. Analytics can help weight the severity of the rules violations and rank suspicious behavior.
