Why Sigma360. Why Now.
Announcing our Series B Funding & Future Outlook
By Stuart Jones, Jr. CEO & Founder, Sigma360
Financial crime has been evolving faster than systems designed to stop it. Until now.
Threat networks operate across borders, exploit new technologies and move at global scale. At the same time, financial institutions face rising regulatory expectations, increasing screening volumes and geopolitical instability that introduces new forms of risk daily.
Yet most tools used to detect and prevent financial crime were built decades ago. They generate overwhelming (often exceeding 90%) false positives, rely on fragmented data and struggle to identify complex or networked threats.
The gap between tomorrow’s risk landscape and legacy technology has never been wider.
This moment is why Sigma360 exists.
Today we announced our oversubscribed $17.3MM Series B funding round led by Moderne Ventures, with participation from Vocap Partners and Orrick, and continued support from Contour Ventures and Mosaik Partners. This investment allows us to accelerate the platform financial institutions urgently need now.
I founded Sigma360 with a clear mission to strengthen the global financial system by delivering trusted AI-powered infrastructure that transforms how institutions prevent financial crime and manage risk. During my time leading counterterrorism and anti-corruption operations in D.C. and on-the-ground in Afghanistan and the Arabian Gulf following 9/11, I saw firsthand how legacy KYC and screening systems struggled to keep pace with increasingly complex global threats. Institutions were forced to operate with disparate tools, incomplete data and technology that couldn’t keep up with the speed of risk.
Sigma360 was built to change that.
Our platform unifies global risk data, proprietary intelligence, core screening technology and AI automation in one enterprise system. Instead of stitching together disconnected tools, our customers operate from one platform designed to identify risk with greater speed, context, and accuracy.
The need for this approach has never been greater. And our clients’ outcomes have never been stronger.
Over the past two years, Sigma360 has grown fivefold and reached profitability in 2025. Today our platform helps protect over $2 trillion in assets and company value, while supporting financial institutions that process billions of dollars in value every month.
This Series B will fuel our growth, strengthen our proprietary risk intelligence datasets, deepen our AI automation capabilities, and expand our reach across banks, payment providers, and other regulated institutions worldwide.
Just as important, we’ll continue investing in exceptional people committed to solving the most complex challenges faced by the global financial system.
Building trusted infrastructure for highly regulated markets takes ingenuity, discipline, and strong partnerships. I’m grateful to our investors, customers, partners and the Sigma360 team for their trust and support throughout.
Every day, the world is more complex. Financial crime is becoming more sophisticated. Institutions need better tools.
Sigma360 is building them.
