Case Study: Payments company Earthport achieves high STP rates and mitigates AML risk with ComplyAdvantage Transaction Monitoring

Earthport achieved high STP rate while effectively mitigating risk

Earthport, a payments company that processes $11 billion in transactions across more than 65 countries, faced a complex, multi‑jurisdictional risk environment with high transaction volumes and multiple business models (FX, international settlement, remittance). They needed to monitor large numbers of transactions for financial‑crime risk without compromising the company’s industry‑leading straight‑through processing (STP) rate or creating heavy manual workloads. After finding off‑the‑shelf solutions insufficient, Earthport partnered with ComplyAdvantage and adopted its Transaction Monitoring product.

ComplyAdvantage implemented a flexible, easy‑to‑configure Transaction Monitoring platform with tailored risk scenarios, customizable case management and an audit trail, which could be tuned over time. As a result, Earthport maintained a high STP rate while effectively mitigating AML risk, substantially reduced false positives and manual resolutions, improved reporting and auditability, and freed compliance resources to focus on decision‑making — outcomes praised by management, clients, banking partners and regulators.
