The context

Banks face rising operational risk from fraud, cyber threats and third-party dependencies, while supervisors push harder on resilience and data quality. Compliance teams are growing, but so is the volume of alerts, policies and evidence they must handle.

Problems and answers

## 4 problems, and how GENIA would tackle each one. 

Problem 01

### Financial crime compliance keeps getting costlier

KYC files, screening alerts and investigations pile up faster than teams can clear them. Labor is the largest cost line, and analysts spend their time gathering documents instead of judging risk.

With GENIA

#### An agent that prepares every case file

1.  1 An objective per review batch gathers customer documents, emails and prior decisions from the Knowledge Hub.
2.  2 The agent drafts a case summary with every fact linked to its source page or email.
3.  3 When a case needs judgment, it asks the analyst with clear options and waits.

Reads from

-   KYC files on SharePoint
-   Compliance mailbox
-   Policy library
-   Recorded case reviews

Your people decide. The analyst decides whether to clear, escalate or report.

Problem 02

### Fraud is now a top operational risk

AI-assisted fraud and social engineering are rising. Fraud teams must connect complaints, transaction notes, emails and procedures quickly, and prove what was checked and when.

With GENIA

#### Fraud cases assembled with full traceability

1.  1 Knowledge Hub indexes fraud procedures, customer emails and recorded investigation calls, searchable by minute.
2.  2 Parallel objectives collect evidence per case, each seeing only the data assigned to it.
3.  3 Every step is written to the audit log, ready for internal audit or the supervisor.

Reads from

-   Fraud procedures
-   Customer correspondence
-   Recorded investigation calls
-   Case notes

Your people decide. Investigators decide on refunds, blocks and reporting.

Problem 03

### DORA raises the bar on ICT suppliers

Banks depend more on cloud and payment providers, and supervisors flag these dependencies as a growing concern. Contracts, incident logs and exit plans sit in different places and owners.

With GENIA

#### One map of suppliers and their evidence

1.  1 Process discovery maps how supplier onboarding and incident handling really run, with controls, systems and roles.
2.  2 An agent reads contracts and SLAs and lists missing clauses, each finding linked to the page.
3.  3 A chained flow drafts the register of information for the risk team to review.

Reads from

-   Supplier contracts
-   Incident reports
-   Outsourcing policy
-   Recorded vendor reviews

Your people decide. Risk owners approve the register and remediation plan.

Problem 04

### Risk data and reporting still lag expectations

The ECB names risk data aggregation and reporting as a priority vulnerability for 2025 to 2027. Lineage lives in people's heads, spreadsheets and old email threads.

With GENIA

#### Document data lineage from how people work

1.  1 Recorded walkthroughs of reporting processes become an AS-IS map of activities, controls and systems.
2.  2 Findings and quick wins are listed, each with the session minute or document as evidence.
3.  3 Agents keep lineage documentation updated as procedures change in SharePoint.

Reads from

-   Reporting procedures
-   Recorded walkthroughs
-   Data dictionaries
-   GitHub repos with ETL code

Your people decide. The CRO and data owners sign off on remediation.

A project, objective by objective

## KYC periodic review flow 

1.  Objective 1 Collect customer documents and history Done
    
2.  Objective 2 Screen against policy and lists Done
    
3.  Objective 3 Draft risk assessment with citations In progress
    
4.  Objective 4 Analyst review and decision Waiting on you
    
5.  Objective 5 Archive evidence for audit Next
    

Objectives run in parallel when they can, chain when one needs the other, and stop to ask a person when a decision is not theirs to make.

Ask your knowledge

## One question, a sourced answer. 

What documents do we need to refresh a high-risk corporate client's KYC file?

GENIA

High-risk corporate clients need a refreshed ownership chart, source of funds evidence and senior approval every 12 months (KYC procedure v4, p. 9). The last review flagged a missing ownership chart (email from Compliance, 14 March). 

Illustrative example

Regulation

## GENIA prepares the evidence. Your team signs. 

-   DORA
-   EU AI Act
