Unsupervised learning is used for entity resolution and for entity segmentation using clustering.” Additionally, the report summarized, “The solution includes notebooks-based AI workflows to support these capabilities as well as tuning...the solution comes with more than 280 pre-defined rules, including specific rules for retail and correspondent banking, securities, insurance, and other lines of business. Actimize also provides several ‘security blanket’ rules for detecting anomalies.” 

"NICE Actimize’s AML transaction monitoring system is a comprehensive solution with strong behavior detection, case management and reporting capabilities," said Neil Katkov, PhD, Risk Director and author of the Celent report. "The solution’s advanced analytics and data enrichment capabilities were also key to our assessment of the offering, leading it to win the XCelent Award for Breadth of Functionality.
