NEW YORK, March 11, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Sigma360®, the definitive AI-powered risk screening and monitoring technology platform, has been independently recognized as the #1 Adverse Media Solution for 2025 by Chartis Research as part of their annual Financial Crime and Compliance50 rankings. This award underscores Sigma360’s unwavering commitment to innovation and excellence in combating financial crime.
Powered by always-on monitoring of global media sources across 50+ languages, Sigma360 enables organizations to proactively identify relevant and material risks the moment they emerge. Its cutting-edge AI-driven models process up to 10x more risk data than legacy providers and deliver up to a 35% gain in efficiency for compliance teams. By combining expansive global coverage with advanced materiality and entity risk scoring models, Sigma360 helps teams cut through noise and focus only on the risks that truly matter.
“In our conversations with regulators, boards and shareholders, it is clear that adverse media screening is now a requirement versus a nice-to-have,” said Stuart Jones, Jr., CEO and Founder of Sigma360. “And for good reason, as adverse media screening finds client and counterparty risks that virtually every other control would miss, presenting a powerful and necessary capability to help detect drug cartel, sanction evasion, corruption and human trafficking-related risks hiding in plain sight. This latest recognition by Chartis Research is a tremendous honor and the result of a multiyear team-effort to redefine how adverse media can and should work at scale – across models, tunability and workflows.”

- Customizable Risk Tuning – Configure risk thresholds with precision to align with specific policy objectives and ensure compliance.
- Advanced Materiality Scoring – Identify and surface only the relevant and most critical risks, reducing false positives and capturing crime at any stage.
- AI-Powered Risk Summarization – Generate concise, high-relevance insights that accelerate investigations and decision-making.
- Seamless Integration & Scalability – Work effortlessly alongside KYC, AML, sanction screening, and due diligence workflows for integrated global risk monitoring.
