NICE Actimize launched X-Sight Entity Risk

Earlier this year, NICE Actimize launched an SaaS solution that produces a single risk score that enables a financial institution to gain a greater understanding of their clients across the organization.

The new product, X-Sight Entity Risk, is powered by artificial intelligence, machine learning, entity resolution, and network analytics with the aim of enhancing the efficacy of advanced anti-money laundering, enterprise fraud prevention, and other financial services applications.

The single profile and trust score provides a fully transparent view of entities and enables better risk management and frictionless customer experiences.

X-Sight Entity Risk sources data from multiple venues to ensure an entity profile is always accurate and analyzes entity networks and behaviors. The single entity trust score informs detection and prevention systems to power their analytics.

Firms are empowered to shift from reactive to proactive risk management by gaining access to a fully transparent view of entities across the entire organization thanks to a blend of AI, machine learning, and automation.
