Backtesting
in Anti-Money Laundering

Backtesting for better transaction monitoring

Optimise your compliance risk strategy with a solution that automates your backtesting process. 

As a financial institution, you are obliged to review the functioning and effectiveness of your internal measures to prevent money laundering. Indicators, rules, thresholds, scores and risk classifications used in monitoring systems need to be checked on a regular and ad hoc basis to ensure that they are appropriate and up to date. Well-tuned systems generate high quality hits. However, empirical knowledge alone is no longer sufficient to optimise the business configuration. Backtesting simulates the effects of parameter changes and helps to calibrate the monitoring system correctly. We support you in backtesting - and automate the process for you as far as possible!
