Press Release
Sturgeon Ventures has welcomed the inclusion of ComplyAdvantage in the RegTech100 for the fourth year running, recognising the company’s continued leadership in anti-money laundering (AML) and financial crime risk management.
The annual RegTech100 list highlights the world’s most innovative companies addressing regulatory and compliance challenges across financial services. ComplyAdvantage’s repeated inclusion reflects its sustained focus on data quality, intelligent risk detection and practical tools that help firms meet regulatory obligations with confidence.
Sturgeon Ventures, which works closely with regulated financial services firms and fintechs, uses ComplyAdvantage’s AML and risk software as part of its own compliance framework.
“ComplyAdvantage’s technology has become an essential part of how we manage AML and financial crime risk,” said Seonaid Mackenzie, Founder of Sturgeon Ventures. “Its continued recognition in the RegTech100 is well deserved. What sets ComplyAdvantage apart is not just the sophistication of the data, but the way it is applied to real-world compliance challenges in a fast-moving regulatory environment.”
Charles Delingpole, Founder and Executive Chairman ComplyAdvantage, said: “ComplyAdvantage is delighted to be included in the prestigious RegTech100 list once again. Sturgeon Ventures was one of our first users in 2014 and introducers of our services into the financial services industry, evidencing their continued backing of entrepreneurs and focus on regulatory technology always at their heart of their own business.”
ComplyAdvantage uses advanced data science and machine learning to identify and manage financial crime risk in real time, supporting firms across onboarding, transaction monitoring and ongoing due diligence. Its tools are used globally by banks, fintechs and investment firms operating across multiple jurisdictions.
“For firms like Sturgeon Ventures, robust AML and risk controls are not optional,” Seonaid added. “Using trusted, well-established technology is a critical part of maintaining high standards for clients, partners and regulators alike.”
The RegTech100 recognition reinforces ComplyAdvantage’s position as a trusted partner for organisations seeking scalable, reliable and regulator-ready compliance solutions.
