Case Study: a rapidly expanding cryptocurrency exchange achieves global AML compliance at scale with Zymr

a rapidly expanding cryptocurrency exchange achieves 99.8% AML risk detection accuracy with Zymr

The customer, a rapidly expanding cryptocurrency exchange, faced the challenge of achieving global anti-money laundering (AML) compliance as it entered new regulated markets. Their existing tools could not handle the scale of over 500,000 daily transactions or integrate blockchain analytics, resulting in high false positives. To build a robust, cloud-native AML monitoring system, the exchange partnered with vendor Zymr.

Zymr designed and implemented a cloud-native AML transaction monitoring engine tailored for crypto. The solution integrated global sanctions feeds, blockchain analytics, and AI-based risk scoring to enable real-time monitoring. This allowed the exchange to process over 500,000 transactions daily with 99.8% accuracy in risk detection, significantly reducing false positives and lowering audit overhead. Zymr's platform provided the unified compliance framework needed for the client's confident global expansion.
