NICE Actimize Transforms Flagstar Bank’s Financial Crime Strategy To Enable Future Transition to Intelligent Automation

Hoboken, N.J., August 28, 2018 –NICE Actimize, a NICE (Nasdaq: NICE) business and the leader in Autonomous Financial Crime Management, has been chosen by Flagstar Bank to transform and build its financial crime strategy with its new anti-money laundering and case management solutions. The implementation will include NICE Actimize's recently launched Suspicious Activity Monitoring (SAM9) solution along with Actimize ActOne, an investigation management system that can serve as the financial institution's next generation alert and case management platform. 

Flagstar Bank, a current customer of NICE Actimize, will kick off its transformation efforts with the Actimize Suspicious Activity Monitoring, SAM9, which introduces NICE Actimize's innovative concept of Autonomous Financial Crime Management to the SAM anti-money laundering solution for the first time. Additionally, NICE Actimize's ActOne Management System, when working in tandem with the AML solution, will improve analysts' decision making while reducing investigation time for a single alert by up to 70 percent.

"Over the course of our relationship, we have come to value NICE Actimize for their deep industry experience and investment in leading-edge financial crime products, such as their anti-money laundering and advanced case management solutions, said Matthew Paulsen, director of BSA/AML Compliance, Flagstar Bank. "We are particularly excited about the synergies and the end-to-end capabilities that SAM9 and ActOne will bring to Flagstar in helping us fight financial crime."

"As one of our first efforts in an Autonomous Financial Crime Management solution, this strategic assignment for NICE Actimize demonstrates the strength and accessibility of our end-to-end offerings," said Joe Friscia, President, NICE Actimize. "This innovative financial crime system can ultimately be transformed by applying AI-enabled robotics and automation to its ecosystem. Together, our AML and ActOne solutions provide the key to better resource utilization, increased accuracy and productivity, and improved return on investment."
