In financial services, while the promise of AI-driven transformation in risk screening is compelling, we understand that it's about control, auditability, and absolute trust.
Most "AI-powered" solutions in the market today fall short of enterprise-grade rigor. They often lack alignment with model risk management protocols, struggle to articulate decision-making logic, and fail to offer a repeatable framework for evaluation, deployment, and governance.
Sigma360 has developed a comprehensive framework equipping compliance leaders with a structured methodology for assessing Generative AI solutions.
Our framework, called GRACE, provides the blueprint to meet audit and regulatory expectations, enabling fast, explainable, and inherently defensible risk decisions.
An evaluation methodology for AI governance
Assessment criteria across five pillars (GRACE), enabling compliance teams to evaluate Generative AI solutions.
Practical AI implementation guidance
Step-by-step protocols for parallel testing, risk appetite definition, and continuous monitoring.
Due diligence tools for informed decision-making

Sigma360 pulls from global sanctions lists, adverse media, corporate registries, litigation data, regulatory watchlists, and proprietary intelligence. These sources are continuously curated and updated to detect hidden risk relationships.
Yes. Sigma360 is fully configurable by region, regulatory domain, and risk appetite. Teams can fine-tune screening logic, thresholds, and escalation workflows to match internal policies and external compliance requirements.
Most legacy tools overwhelm teams with irrelevant alerts. Sigma360 focuses on materiality, accuracy, and automation, so teams spend less time reviewing noise and more time investigating true risk.
Organizations that use Sigma360 typically see over 93 percent fewer false positives, faster case resolution, stronger audit trails, and improved alignment with global compliance expectations.
Sigma360 reduces compliance costs by automating manual reviews, suppressing irrelevant alerts, and accelerating investigations. This saves time, reduces staffing pressure, and allows compliance teams to focus on strategic priorities.
