It has developed patented end-to-end AI technology that mitigates human intervention in Know Your Customer and Anti Money Laundering to optimize payment processes and compliance between emerging and developed markets.

The firm is also applying for regulatory licenses from the UK, Puerto Rico, and Singapore, with a new African option being currently investigated. Temenos’ regional functionality and packaged country model bank framework will help Tintra to quickly comply with local regulations and business practices at a lower cost.
