A real-time compliance engine for a tier-1 fintech

Onboarding an institutional client took days of manual compliance checks across half a dozen internal systems, and regulatory reports were assembled by hand. We built a real-time compliance engine that automates the checks, the decisions and the reporting.

01 The challenge

KYC, sanctions, risk scoring and approvals lived in separate systems with separate owners. Each onboarding meant a fourteen-step manual process and a multi-day wait, slowing deals and creating operational risk. Regulatory reporting was a monthly scramble with plenty of room for error.

02 What we did

  • Rules and decision engine encoding the firm's compliance policy with full versioning and approval workflow
  • Integrations with KYC providers, sanctions and PEP screening, internal risk models and the CRM
  • Straight-through onboarding for cases that pass every check, with clear escalation queues for exceptions
  • Automated regulatory reporting generated from the same audited data
  • Immutable audit trail for every decision, data source and reviewer

03 The results

  • Institutional onboarding reduced from days to hours
  • Regulatory reporting fully automated
  • No compliance failures since go-live
  • Compliance engineering effort cut substantially

Sendtra: home-to-school transport management and a driver app for a UK local council
