About RiskScout

After decades of developing enterprise software for financial institutions, pioneering cloud banking and infrastructure, and writing regulatory compliance as part of the FFIEC, our team of experts came together to solve a big problem for financial institutions (FI) compliance.

Traditional FI tools are too broad in scope to effectively address the increasingly interrelated risk environment that FIs are forced to manage.  Currently available tools tend to stop at basic scoring and evaluation, forcing FI staff to perform duplicative time intensive work when qualified staff are more difficult to find than ever.  Think: the TSA line at the airport on a good day. RiskScout is a modern compliance system that automates the onboarding, business verification, and ongoing compliance required to handle all higher risk businesses and entities.  RiskScout is the Clear terminal at the TSA line - not less compliance, just done in a better way!
