In regulatory compliance, we focus on anti-money laundering and reconciliation and

our products – Anti-Money Laundering Suite (AMLS) and Reconciliation Suite (RS) –
cater to these areas, respectively.
Today, regulatory compliance processes have become more complex and fluidic,
increasing the chances for rule-based models to fail. Banks need to move beyond
static rule-based systems and adopt a new approach to improve efficiency,
effectiveness at optimal cost, ensuring sustainable compliance programs across the
BFS industry. Tookitaki bridges the gap with its innovative software products – AMLS
and RS.
