Case Study: Gulf Capital Bank reduces AML alerts with Abrigo BAM+

Gulf Capital Bank reduces AML alerts while ensuring risk coverage with Abrigo BAM+

Gulf Capital Bank, a $544 million community bank headquartered in Houston, Texas, needed a better way to manage AML compliance after its core provider’s software proved unintuitive, limited, and frustrating to use. The bank’s AML/CFT team struggled with basic functions, poor workflow design, and an unresponsive vendor, making it difficult to support daily compliance and transaction monitoring needs.

The bank selected Abrigo’s BAM+ AML solution to replace the outdated system, using its transaction monitoring, reporting, and training capabilities to better tune scenarios and streamline operations. With Abrigo, Gulf Capital Bank cut alert volume by 50%, improved transaction monitoring efficiency, simplified CTR filing, and reduced internal reporting friction, giving the team a more intuitive and productive AML process.
