iComply and CE Corner Launch Free CE-Accredited Training on AI Fraud

by | Aug 8, 2025 | Blog, AML - Anti-Money Laundering, Global Coverage, iComply Insights, Industries, KYB - Know Your Business, KYC - Know Your Customer, KYT - Transaction Monitoring, Press Releases

August 2025, Vancouver, Canada: iComply, a global leader in digital compliance technology, has announced a new strategic partnership with CE Corner, Canada’s premier continuing education provider for legal, financial, and insurance professionals. Together, the two firms are launching the first in a series of accredited training programs designed to equip professionals with the awareness and tools needed to combat AI-driven fraud, cryptocurrency abuse, and rising AML compliance threats.

The inaugural course, titled “Protecting Clients from Emerging Fraud,” is now live and available free of charge. It provides CE credit in multiple jurisdictions and is tailored for legal, real estate, wealth management, and financial services professionals.

“AI-driven fraud is exploding among legal, real estate, and financial services providers,” said Matthew Unger, CEO of iComply. “This is a technology arms race that demands active engagement from every level of an organization.”

Technology is advancing faster than compliance teams can train. Salesforces, support reps, and client-facing teams are now the frontline defence against fraud Yet most are ill-equipped to identify sophisticated attacks that use deepfakes, AI-generated documents, or blockchain obfuscation techniques. This new partnership aims to close that gap and give our frontline resources better tools and training to protect themselves, their clients, and our financial markets from AI-powered fraud.

Course Overview:

In just 1 hour, participants will learn:

  • How emerging fraud schemes are evolving through AI, spoofing, and social engineering

  • What frontline staff must know to detect threats before losses occur

  • Practical tactics for identifying red flags and protecting clients

  • Why CE training is no longer optional in a rapidly digitizing world

Access the course now at CE Corner.

iComply delivers end-to-end KYB, KYC, KYT, and AML compliance solutions for financial institutions, legal service providers, and fintech platforms worldwide. Built with a zero-trust security model and edge-computing architecture, iComply helps clients reduce compliance costs by up to 90%, while meeting or exceeding global standards such as SOC2, ISO27001, GDPR, and PIPEDA.

CE Corner is a trusted education platform for Canadian professionals across law, accounting, insurance, and financial services. It offers accredited, high-quality training programs to ensure professionals stay compliant, competent, and competitive in fast-changing regulatory environments.

Looking for more than awareness?

iComply also offers advanced AML compliance training programs for clients and partners. These 10-hour programs blend self-directed learning and live instruction to deliver actionable education that maps to your regulatory obligations.

iComply Investor Services Named a CyberTech100 Company for 2021

The CyberTech100 list for 2021 recognizes the world’s most innovative companies focused on helping financial institutions combat cyber threats and fraud

Vancouver, B.C. – June 8, 2021 – iComply Investor Services (“iComply”), a global compliance software provider, is announcing that the company has been named to the second annual list of the CyberTech100, highlighting the world’s most innovative providers of digital solutions helping financial services firms fight off cyberattacks and protect their data.

Announced today by FinTech Global, a specialist research firm in the UK, the CyberTech100 for 2021 recognizes the pioneering companies helping financial institutions combat cyber threats and fraud.

“Security executives working in financial services need to be aware of the latest innovation and threats in the market in order to protect client and company data as well as fend off cyber and financial criminals,” said Richard Sachar, director at FinTech Global. “The CyberTech100 list helps them do just that and identify new technologies which will have a lasting impact on the industry and attackers’ behaviour.”

The CyberTech industry for financial services has seen huge growth over the last four years as operations are increasingly moving to the cloud and organizations expand their spending on securing new digital infrastructure. Total annual investments in the sector grew from $0.7bn in 2016 to over $6.2bn last year. That’s an increase of nearly nine times and a CAGR of 72.5%.

As a result, the competition to be identified as one of the leading 100 CyberTech companies in the world was even fiercer this year. A panel of analysts and industry experts voted from a list of over 1,000 companies produced by FinTech Global. The finalists were recognized for their innovative use of technology to solve a significant industry problem, or to generate cost savings or efficiency improvements across the security value chain.

Thomson Reuters Marketplace Selects iComply as a KYB, KYC, and AML Partner

New Thomson Reuters Marketplace Selects iComplyKYC as a Digital Identity and KYC Partner

Thomson Reuters has launched its Marketplace, featuring a curated selection of software solutions for law firms, corporate law offices, and tax and accounting professionals

Vancouver, B.C. – April 27, 2021 – iComply Investor Services (“iComply”), a global compliance software provider, is announcing that the company has partnered with Thomson Reuters to distribute its iComplyKYC platform through the Thomson Reuters Marketplace. 

iComplyKYC gives businesses access to a turnkey, world-class know your customer (KYC), anti-money laundering (AML), and identity access management (IAM) solution that can be quickly embedded into any digital experience. 

The Thomson Reuters Marketplace is an online store that showcases a wide range of solutions offered by Thomson Reuters, as well as its trusted and tested vendors such as iComply. 

“With the pandemic driving business more online, financial processes that used to require face-to-face interaction are becoming digital,” said Matthew Unger, CEO of iComply. “The internet was developed to transfer information and so the policies of user identification and identity access management have followed internet industry standards. As more banks digitize, new fintechs emerge, and major tech companies enter financial services, these internet standards fall short of the regulatory requirements. iComplyKYC solves this by combining “banking grade” KYC portals with your existing identity access management, single sign-on, or digital identity management solutions.”

Existing digital solutions force users to submit their most personal details into a web form for user identification or authentication, with API-based solutions relaying this information to third-party data processors and sub-processors that are often international and could retain control of the data. Other existing alternatives to these API-based solutions require significant resources to implement and maintain, such as custom software development.

“iComplyKYC helps businesses securely and digitally collect, verify, screen, and maintain data and documents for both natural persons and legal entities,” said Matthew Unger, CEO of iComply Investor Services.

“Unlike existing digital KYC solutions, the platform uses edge computing and artificial intelligence to process sensitive user data locally, before it leaves the user’s device, which helps organizations comply with local data privacy laws across jurisdictions.”

iComplyKYC is a next-generation, web3 ready, KYC solution that is built from the ground up to support true data privacy and can be deployed within minutes. All of this is designed to save clients money on implementation and ongoing maintenance while allowing operations teams to gain a 360-degree view of identity resolution, KYC and AML compliance, and ongoing access management.

iComply Launches Digital Compliance Administration Platform for $181 Billion KYC and AML Market

iComply Launches Digital Compliance Administration Platform for the $181 Billion KYC and AML market

The updated iComplyKYC platform leverages edge computing and AI to support onboarding and identify verification for legal entities and natural persons

Vancouver, B.C. – December 15, 2020 – iComply Investor Services (“iComply”), a global compliance software provider, is announcing that it is launching an updated version of its iComplyKYC platform for digital compliance administration that now supports the onboarding and authentication of legal entities and natural persons as a part of its all-in-one compliance solution.

Unlike existing electronic identification (e-ID) solutions that require tools from multiple vendors and manual processing for B2C and B2B customer due diligence, iComplyKYC offers a standalone system to manage the full lifecycle of KYC and AML administration for each client.

Globally, AML spend by financial services providers grew to over $181B USD a year in 2019, according to a 2020 report from Compliance Week.

“The latest directives from the Financial Action Task Force (FATF) have broadened AML requirements to include law firms, accounting, eCommerce, luxury sales and M&A transactions,” said Matthew Unger, CEO of iComply. “Further, new requirements for work-from-home have complicated the day-to-day compliance operations of most of the market, and ‘digital first’ is no longer a nice-to-have, but a necessity.”

Remote workforces and lockdowns have forced businesses to implement digital solutions for client onboarding, identification, and AML risk management.  iComplyKYC can service law firms, accounting firms, eCommerce platforms, mortgage brokers, and other industries regulated by the AML-5 directive. iComply estimates the global AML spend will exceed $300B USD by 2022.

The platform leverages edge computing for GDPR, PIPA, PPIA, and CCPA risk management. This means that the updated iComplyKYC platform enables companies to gather, authenticate, and encrypt user data via dynamic KYC Portals before that data leaves the user’s device. 

KYC services on the platform also include AI-enabled identity verification, biometric authentication, DUNS, and GLEI validation, supporting document workflows, and AML screening across 150 million daily sources. Compliance teams can access all results in a single dashboard to make better decisions, quickly manage issues, and generate reports.

“Integrating edge computing and artificial intelligence into the KYC portal reduces the total cost of compliance and improves user privacy, cybersecurity, and straight-through processing capabilities,” added Unger. “Businesses can no longer afford to mess with half a dozen onboarding tools and APIS, the market needs a banking grade digital identity and risk management solution that can be set up in hours.”
