Oct 30, 2023

Addressing the needs of changing FCA regulations, NICE Actimize's AI-powered suitability solution supports wealth management institutions and consumers

Hoboken, N.J., October 30, 2023 – NICE Actimize, a NICE (NASDAQ: NICE) business, was named the winner in the “Suitability” technology product category by WealthBriefing European Awards 2023. Sponsored by WealthBriefing, a publication of Clearview Financial Media and a leading global provider of business intelligence in the private banking and wealth management space, the awards program rewards achievement, top class performance, innovation, and a focus on the client experience.

NICE Actimize’s award-winning SURVEIL-X Suitability for Wealth and Insurance is a comprehensive AI-powered surveillance and suitability solution that builds on the capabilities of NICE Actimize’s industry-leading SURVEIL-X Holistic Conduct Surveillance suite. The SURVEIL-X Suitability capabilities include complete data coverage, advanced detection scenarios, predictive analytics, self-development & tuning, intelligent investigations, dashboards & visualization, and automated insights.

Already adopted by leading global financial services organizations, SURVEIL-X combines communications surveillance, sales practices & suitability, and Regulation Best Interest (Reg BI) surveillance in a single, integrated cloud-native platform. The cloud native suite provides easy onboarding and managed services, as well as simple integrations with open API and industry leading security protections.

“The new suitability regulations being put in place in the UK clearly require that financial services firms put consumers’ interests first,” said Chris Wooten, EVP Vertical Markets, NICE. “NICE Actimize automates oversight and supervision of suitability and sales practices to reduce the risk exposure faced by financial services organizations and their senior managers while reducing the risk of reputational harm and fines.”

With its proposed Consumer Duty rule, The Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) has signaled a major shift in expectations for financial services firms as it steps up efforts to shield everyday consumers.
