Accenture has introduced a new cloud-based data analytics utility to help the US banks to better manage and enhance their risk-management and other activities cost-effectively.
The new solution ‘Accenture Financial Crime Analytics Utility’ has been developed in collaboration with the Mid-Sized Bank Coalition of America (MBCA).

Currently, it focuses on risk-management capabilities including anti-money-laundering (AML) compliance. It will be expanded to run analytics-intensive operations for other banking functions including cybersecurity and third-party risk management.
Accenture managing director in banking practice Scott Nathan said: “Our new utility helps level the playing field for mid-size banks, enabling them to leverage analytics at scale and apply data-driven insights as only larger banks previously could.
“Clients can take advantage of the most advanced analytics as a fully supported service to transform their data into actionable insights to improve performance and outcomes – and compete more effectively in today’s digital world.”
As complying with financial crime regulations can be expensive, Accenture’s new utility will enable banks to cost-effectively source and share the right intelligence to make informed decisions on these regulations including Bank Secrecy Act.
