NICE Actimize Accelerates Innovation with Industry-First Financial Crime Management Marketplace

Hoboken, N.J., June 17, 2019 – How can financial services organizations keep up with a changing market landscape while confidently evolving their financial crime strategy? NICE Actimize, a NICE business (Nasdaq: NICE) and leader in Autonomous Financial Crime Management, today announced the launch of the X-Sight Marketplace, the industry's first financial crime risk management-focused marketplace designed to accelerate innovation by assisting financial services organizations as they evaluate new point solutions, assess the viability within their current infrastructure, and move to keep up with a fast-changing regulatory and criminal environment.

The NICE Actimize X-Sight Marketplace, an ecosystem focused on financial crime and compliance, provides a new channel for prospective buyers to connect with vendors. The agility of the X-Sight Marketplace's cloud environment, combined with the power of artificial intelligence, delivers an overall improved customer experience. There is minimized integration cost to financial services organizations, resulting in a quicker time to value.

Technology providers that join NICE Actimize's X-Sight Marketplace ecosystem are reviewed for their ability to complement financial crime and compliance solutions. Once approved, software and service providers become available to the NICE Actimize community via the X-Sight Marketplace. FSOs can quickly browse through X-Sight Marketplace solution categories to find scalable options that solve their unique business problems. 

NICE Actimize's X-Sight Marketplace initial solutions categories will include: ID Verification, Ultimate Beneficial Ownership, Value-added Data & Adverse Media, Watchlist, Device Identification, and User Authentication & Fraud. Additional categories will be announced as the X-Sight Marketplace grows. 

The NICE Actimize X-Sight Marketplace provides business value to financial services organizations and solution providers across three focus areas:

• Faster Selection Process: The NICE Actimize X-Sight Marketplace provides immediate access to vendors specific to the financial crime and compliance market and which have been reviewed to be fit for purpose. Financial services organizations can choose from a variety of categories to quickly find appropriate options that address their specific business problems.
• Faster Assessment Process: For financial services organizations looking to integrate additional 3^rd party vendors into a larger financial crime and compliance program, long implementation cycles are often the standard. Vendors participating in the X-Sight Marketplace are pre-integrated into the NICE Actimize portfolio, which makes measuring the impact of a vendor as easy as doing a search and reviewing how the results influence the overall processes.
• Agility to Innovate: Many factors prevent a financial crime program from evolving to meet regulatory and technological change. The marketplace approach provides unparalleled coverage options and the ability to innovate quickly to meet business requirements.

"The challenges of our financial services organization customers seeking greater value in financial crime risk management are more easily met with a focused marketplace community that offers them greater accessibility as they incorporate new solutions into their operations," said Craig Costigan, CEO, NICE Actimize. "With cloud as the enabler to deliver agility, combined with our expertise in artificial intelligence, the X-Sight Marketplace allows customers to choose or build the right solutions to resolve their problems by reducing the burden of a long, difficult deployment and integration cycle and thereby reducing costs." Concluded Costigan, "By joining the X-Sight Marketplace, FSOs connect to an ecosystem that provides value by being part of a collaborative approach with the market leader in financial crime and compliance. Technology vendors benefit by partnering with a trusted advisor that can facilitate access to our global customer base."
