Strise and Stacc join forces to replace manual AML with scalable automation

Oslo, Norway – Strise and Stacc have formed a strategic partnership to reshape how financial institutions combat money laundering and financial crime. The collaboration brings together:

• Strise’s AML Automation Cloud, powered by real-time data, AI, and unified entity models
• Stacc’s AML & KYC Management Portal, trusted by 280+ financial institutions across the Nordics
  

By integrating these systems through API, the partnership delivers seamless, analyst-ready AML data directly into customer-facing compliance tools—removing friction and enabling faster, more effective decision-making.

How the integration works

This joint solution enhances efficiency across the compliance lifecycle:

• Strise consolidates global AML data into a single, analyst-ready format using advanced entity resolution
• Stacc ensures streamlined case handling through automated workflows, digital signing, and real-time alerts
  

Together, they offer:

• Pre-linked, continuously updated AML data
• API-driven workflows that reduce manual tasks
• End-to-end support from customer onboarding to ongoing due diligence
  

“Financial crime is not just a regulatory issue—it’s a global crisis,” “Together with Stacc, we’re delivering solutions that help institutions meet their compliance goals and fight financial crime more effectively.” — Marit Rødevand, CEO, Strise

Why this partnership matters

Financial crime fuels corruption, terrorism, and organised crime. Yet many institutions struggle with:

• Fragmented data sources
• Outdated manual workflows
• Siloed compliance systems
  

This partnership addresses these root problems through:

• Integrated, no-touch data enrichment
• Analyst-ready insights directly in the KYC/AML portal
• Collaborative innovation from two leading Nordic compliance tech providers
  

“By combining our strengths, we empower institutions with tools that are smart, fast, and built for modern AML demands,” — Philip Røer, Managing Director, AML, Stacc

• 38% of financial institutions see AML compliance as their biggest challenge
• 33% cited data quality and manual processes as their top pain points
• 94% of Nordic institutions are actively looking to adopt AI in AML workflows
• Over 50% of asset managers plan to increase investment in digital tools before 2026
