Case Study: Leading UK Property Business achieves faster, more efficient AML, KYC and Right-to-Rent compliance with Contego

Contego solutions help leading property businesses tackle the growing demands of an increasingly regulated sector

Contego provides a configurable risk‑scoring and compliance platform for property businesses facing rising regulatory pressure — from KYC, AML and Right to Rent requirements to the 4th Money Laundering Directive. With estate and lettings agents and PropTech firms under scrutiny and traditional due diligence remaining manual and slow, firms need flexible systems to verify buyers, sellers, tenants and companies, detect fraud and demonstrate audit-ready compliance to avoid fines and reputational damage.

One leading UK property firm rolled Contego out across its nationwide branches to automate AML, KYC and Right to Rent checks, integrate with its CRM via a single API, and apply custom data sets and risk scorecards. The solution runs real‑time, multi‑source ID, sanctions and ownership checks, stores encrypted time‑stamped audit trails, and delivered faster onboarding, improved accuracy and fraud detection, greater operational efficiency and demonstrable regulatory compliance.
