Hummingbird, a provider of financial crime risk management solutions, has acquired LogicLoop, a no-code data integration and automation platform, in a move aimed at transforming how financial institutions handle risk and compliance.
The acquisition is part of Hummingbird’s broader strategy to become the core operating platform for financial crime prevention, helping financial institutions unify, explore, and act on their risk and compliance data.
Data fragmentation remains a major challenge for financial institutions worldwide, particularly for risk and compliance teams.
These teams often struggle to access and effectively use their data for investigations, leading to inefficiencies and gaps in risk management.
By integrating LogicLoop’s technology, Hummingbird aims to address these challenges, providing financial institutions with the tools they need to seamlessly access and manage their data.
“We envision a future where financial institutions can connect any data source, instantly access information, and route it through automated procedures to facilitate compliance work,” said Joe Robinson, Co-Founder and CEO of Hummingbird.
“This acquisition brings that future into the present, increasing the utility of an institution’s data and enabling better decision-making for financial crime fighters.”
The acquisition allows Hummingbird to offer no-code integrations, enabling financial institutions to connect both internal and external data sources without the need for technical expertise.
This data can then be used to power automation and ad-hoc exploration, enhancing the institution’s ability to manage risk and compliance.
Moreover, the acquisition expands Hummingbird’s capacity to deploy algorithms that drive risk and compliance programs.
Customers will be able to build, test, and implement algorithms on demand, staying ahead of emerging trends and financial crime typologies.
The integration of LogicLoop also enhances Hummingbird’s unified operating system, allowing for more comprehensive data aggregation, automation, and visualization.
This means that financial institutions will be able to conduct in-depth investigations, assess customer risk, and identify trends, all within a centralized platform.
The solution is designed to streamline operations, empowering risk and compliance teams to automate procedures and make more informed decisions without relying on engineering resources.
LogicLoop’s Co-Founder and CEO, Jesika Haria, emphasized the impact of the acquisition on operations teams.
“By integrating LogicLoop into Hummingbird’s best-in-class compliance platform, more financial institutions will be able to harness the power of data, automation, and AI, gaining a competitive advantage in the fight against financial crime,” she said.
