Alessa

Integrated AML compliance and fraud platform for banks and non-bank regulated sectors

Overview

Alessa, whose site carries the copyright of Alessa Inc., sells one integrated platform for AML compliance and a separate fraud-management line[22]. The AML modules cover a 360-degree view of client risk, identity verification and KYC, watchlist, sanctions and PEP screening, transaction monitoring and screening, risk scoring, enhanced due diligence, case management, regulatory reporting and a false-positive analyser. Fraud modules address account takeover, continuous controls monitoring and procurement monitoring[22].

The vendor targets a wider set of industries than most on this list: banks, credit unions and community banks, but also casinos and gaming, lenders, money-service businesses, fintechs, crypto, insurance, payments and non-financial businesses. It states that users can automate up to 100% of regulatory reporting, including validation and e-filing, and that it holds ISO 27001:2013 and PCI certifications[22]. Customer logos shown include Qantas and the City of Melbourne, which suggests the controls-monitoring line has users outside finance. The site does not state headquarters, ownership, deployment model or pricing, and some performance statistics on its home page were unfilled placeholders when consulted.
