The Temenos Peer Group Identifier utilises statistical analysis and machine learning to assess large amount of data to form financial “DNA” for each customer.

Customers are then grouped with others with similar DNA to provide a measure of normal financial behaviour. This allows banks and firms to focus their efforts on higher risk groups while reducing the need to seek additional verification.

The solution is the result of a collaboration between Microsoft AI in Redmond and Temenos’ AI Centre of Excellence. The models were also built using Azure and can be deployed on a variety of technology platforms.

Adam Gable, product director – financial crime mitigation treasury and risk, Temenos said: “Temenos Peer Group Identifier provides high protection without unnecessary interruptions and inconvenience to customers. Through the use of AI and machine learning, we enable banks to derive highly valuable insights, which simply wouldn’t be possible with conventional techniques.
