San Francisco, California Mar 14, 2024 (Issuewire.com) – Youverify, a leading provider of AI-driven Anti-Money Laundering (AML) solutions, is thrilled to announce a significant investment from Elm, a pioneering digital innovation and solutions company based in Saudi Arabia. This strategic partnership marks a milestone in Youverify’s mission to simplify AML compliance for businesses and enhance AML risk intelligence across the globe.
With an impressive footprint in aggregating data for electronic identity verification (eIDv) in 45 countries and business verification in over 140 jurisdictions securely and reliably, Youverify has established itself as a key player in fintech and an enabler in the financial industry. The company’s state-of-the-art AI-driven AML risk intelligence platform is revolutionizing how businesses address fraud challenges, significantly reducing false positives and improving efficiency in transaction monitoring.
Serving customers in 12 countries, Youverify’s solutions are essential for businesses aiming to maintain compliance, secure transactions, and foster trust. The investment from Elm will enable Youverify to scale its products to additional markets, accelerating the production of its next-generation AML 2.0 products. These advancements are designed to help businesses reduce costs, increase operational efficiency, and navigate the complex landscape of global compliance standards with ease.
“Partnering with Elm is a game-changer for Youverify and our customers,” said Gbenga Odegbami, CEO of Youverify. “Elm’s strong track record in delivering innovative digital solutions aligns perfectly with our mission to provide the financial industry’s most reliable and efficient global AML solutions.” Famous Ehichioya, CTO, and co-founder of Youverify, stated, “The integration of Elm’s resources and expertise with our AI-driven platforms will enable us to accelerate the development of our AML 2.0 products. These innovative solutions are not just about meeting regulatory requirements; they’re about redefining the standard for efficiency and reliability in the financial sector. Staying ahead of fraud is not just a priority for us.”
Gbenga was particularly grateful for the support from the Business Development Bank of Canada, whose resources and guidance helped in our growth journey. Without their backing, our path to success would have been significantly more challenging.
