Data Derivatives

Data Derivatives is a boutique consulting firm primarily focused in the financial crimes technology domain. Regulatory bodies have been raising the expectations for financial institutions financial crime monitoring programs in recent years in addition to the penalties for non-compliance. Financial institutions by their very nature are extraordinarily complex informational ecosystems and attempting to implement a financial crimes solution within budget and on time can prove to be challenging without the guidance of a seasoned group of professionals. Additionally, financial institutions should not only rely solely on vendor products and tuning processes because models are only approximations of reality and have blind spots. The current regulatory trend is that financial institutions need to take responsibility for the quality of their financial crime programs and can't completely fall back on vendor products anymore. Hence, this creates an environment for the development of custom analytics uniquely tailored to the institution's business model and risk profile which is another one of our areas of expertise.
