Acuminor Rated Joint Highest Enterprise Solution for KYC Risk Scoring in Chartis 2026 Quadrant

Stockholm, 28 October 2026 -  Chartis Research has rated Acuminor joint highest for KYC risk scoring within the Enterprise solutions quadrant in its KYC Data and Solutions, 2026: Quadrant Update.

Chartis assessed 60 KYC technology providers for the report. According to Chartis, Enterprise Solutions are established platforms with demonstrated integration and scalability.

The KYC risk scoring criteria evaluates continuous assessment of sanctions updates, adverse media, registry filings and transactional behaviour. Chartis looks for explainable, traceable models that combine quantitative indicators with qualitative context, network analytics that surface indirect and hidden risk, and AI governed by model risk management and oversight.

“Acuminor has demonstrated specialised capabilities in both risk assessment and customer risk model optimisation,” said Phil Mackenzie, Senior Research Principal at Chartis Research. “Chartis considered Acuminor's proprietary intelligence mapping to be a competitive differentiator, which, together with the company's breadth of coverage, led to its positioning as an Enterprise Solution in the RiskTech Quadrant® for KYC Solutions."

Precision risk scoring without replacing your KYC stack

Customer risk scoring model design is one of several use cases across the financial crime framework where institutions must identify, assess and prioritise risk and design effective controls.

Acuminor augments existing KYC systems by using automated financial-crime threat and risk intelligence to design and maintain bespoke customer-risk scoring models, while ensuring defensibility and full audit trail.

"Supervisors expect every risk score to be explainable. Under the UK FCA regime and the incoming EU AMLR and AMLA, an institution must show why one customer is rated high risk and another is not. Our models provide a clear audit trail that traces every decision back to its root sources.

We help institutions automatically design and maintain risk scoring models tailored to their markets, jurisdictions and business lines - all inside any existing KYC tool, whether it comes from another vendor or is built in-house. For enterprise banks, such precision is a key differentiator."
