The FNB security solution, part of FICO Analytic Cloud offerings, is delivered on-premises and on AWS.

FICO vice president for compliance solutions Torsten Mayer said: “By centralising compliance with one system, FNB can enhance detecting criminal activity, serving customers and reporting to multiple agencies.”

FNB general manager Elias Baz said: “The FICO solution was the most flexible, powerful and customisable platform on the market.
