Case Study: Ecobank Achieves Pan-African AML Compliance with FICO TONBELLER

Ecobank thinks global and acts local with a unique implementation of Siron®

Ecobank Transnational Incorporated (ETI), a pan-African bank headquartered in Lomé, needed to strengthen governance, meet growing local and global AML/CFT regulations, and monitor transactions in real time across its expanding multi-country footprint. To address these compliance and integration challenges, Ecobank worked with FICO TONBELLER and its Siron® Anti-Financial Crime Solutions, including AML, KYC, Embargo, and RCC.

FICO TONBELLER implemented a centralized, multi-client Siron® platform in Accra, enabling group-wide monitoring while keeping each country’s database independent. The solution gave Ecobank a central view of AML/CFT risks across 25 local regulatory environments, improved alert management and reporting, supported PEP and sanctions screening, and increased efficiency for the compliance team. As a result, Ecobank achieved stronger compliance oversight, better collaboration with regulators, and improved customer insight and retention opportunities.
