What is Symphony Risk Intelligence?

Symphony Risk Intelligence (SRI) is a cloud-native financial crime prevention platform designed to reduce the total cost of compliance by embedding predictive, generative, and agentic AI into financial crime workflows. By intelligently automating and optimizing end-to-end compliance processes, SRI empowers institutions to manage financial crime risk more efficiently and effectively, featuring enterprise-grade security that will always align to industry standards.

A reimagining of compliance processes

SRI represents a reimagining of the compliance operating model, built to eliminate legacy inefficiencies, unify fragmented systems, and turn compliance into a driver of business growth.
With the ability to automate a wide range of processes and operational tasks, SRI halves the compliance workload while equipping teams with powerful AI-driven tools that accelerate workflows and maximize performance.

• SRI Investigation allows you to unify operational workflows. A single pane of glass for all financial crime operations – KYC / CDD, fraud, AML, and sanctions.
• SRI Detection offers self-serve risk models. Excellent model governance and machine learning operations.
• SRI Data centralizes data asset management providing a scalable data lake and curation architecture.

Alongside these, SRI Agent Management provides all the tools for your organization to build your own (BYO) agents. Automate with no-code orchestration. All wrapped up in a unified governance layer with SRI Governance Framework.
A complete solution to financial crime prevention, organizations can integrate and augment anything from any internal or external data source.

Four key benefits of Symphony Risk Intelligence

Symphony Risk Intelligence offers many benefits to financial institutions. Here are four of the main ones:

Reduce the cost of AML operations

SRI is purpose-built to eliminate key bottlenecks in AML operations. Its modern infrastructure, powered by agentic AI, streamlines everything from data ingestion and model management to investigation and reporting. By automating complex workflows and simplifying processes, SRI significantly reduces operational drag and resource requirements.

Turn compliance into a growth enabler

Transform compliance from a cost center to a growth enabler. With SRI, compliance evolves from a regulatory obligation into a source of risk intelligence and strategic advantage, providing AI-driven insights on detection performance. Gain a significantly deeper understanding of your risk landscape and pair it with faster operational readiness to bring new products to market quicker (and more efficiently) than the competition.

Respond rapidly to regulatory change

Ensure all regulatory updates and requirements are immediately operationalized by simply updating Agents and investigation workflows to reflect new policies and procedures. Enable every process to be quickly adapted to changing requirements, remain 100% compliant, and provide complete auditability.

Future ready your tech stack

Improve strategic agility with zero-effort upgrades on an evergreen platform that transforms your ability to operationalize the latest technology. From building personalized AI Agents and AI models, to developing sophisticated data and agentic workflows, SRI’s no-code UI empowers technology teams to control their own ecosystem and drive major efficiency savings.

The 50/50 Compliance Model – a vision of the future

SRI takes a fundamentally different approach to financial crime prevention. It is process re-engineering designed to transform the compliance operating model. Perfectly balancing the speed, scale, and consistency of advanced AI automation, with the experience, judgement, and oversight of humans. In short, SRI represents a paradigm shift in the AML workforce.
This is the 50/50 Compliance Model, where 50% of the workload is now done by AI, leaving teams to focus on the high-value work that only humans can do.

• 50% of operations automated by AI - Bottlenecks are removed, regulatory updates are actioned immediately, and every action is explainable and auditable.
• 50% human expertise - Provides the experience needed to assess real-life complexity while ensuring critical oversight to AI-led processes and actions.

SRI helps you build both together, letting each do what they do best. AI removes the burden of manual tasks while teams are empowered with AI-driven tools and insights to maximize productivity.

Featuring intelligent process automation using agentic AI

The SRI ecosystem is built with agentic AI at its core. Embedded Agents automate complex tasks at every layer of operations, enabling significant efficiency gains and more effective control of compliance processes. SRI offers a range of pre-built Agents and BYO capabilities so you can build your own Agents to automate processes unique to your business.

SRI Agents connect to a world of data

Agents can harness internal data from any system to automate tasks and generate insights. Their impact grows when connected to third-party APIs, giving them access to external data and tools to enrich investigations and validate information. Think of them as intelligent API orchestrators, dynamically calling the right systems as needed.
Possibilities include:

• Business intelligence – Dun & Bradstreet, LexisNexis, Experian, Moody’s, etc.
• Regulatory updates – Sanctions lists as well as broader regulatory advisories
• Business systems – Temenos, Salesforce, Hubspot, Zendesk, Google, etc.

SRI is your strategic roadmap to phased AI adoption

Built for ultimate flexibility, Symphony Risk Intelligence has a modular design that enables a phased approach to AI adoption. Improve systems at a pace of change that aligns to your organization’s strategic vision.
Start small with AI overlays that immediately improve legacy system performance and simply add more SRI modules whenever you’re ready. Here’s an example:

• Start with SRI AML TM or SRI Screening - Enjoy immediate results by rapidly improving detection efficiency.
• Centralize operations – Increasing operational effectiveness by using SRI Investigation, bringing together SymphonyAI's capabilities and your existing legacy tools.
• Replace legacy tools – Upgrade the detection tech stack with SRI Detection. Take your financial crime operations to the next level using AI and advanced rules.
• Complete AI-led holistic risk management – Incorporate every element of Symphony Risk Intelligence to improve and future-proof operations.

Alternatively, institutions can take all SRI modules for a single risk domain, such as sanctions or AML transaction monitoring.
However your organization chooses to start the transformational journey with SRI, SymphonyAI specialists will work closely with your team to understand pressing challenges and develop an optimal migration path.
It’s important to remember that SRI seamlessly integrates with your existing tech stack and legacy solutions. This allows institutions to migrate systems to a next generation infrastructure while still maximizing the value of existing tech investments.
