Dynamic customer risk that stays current

Your customer risk stays current as behaviour changes – and your monitoring, thresholds and workflows adapt automatically.

Trusted by leaders in finance and technology

What changes when risk scoring works

Every customer carries a different level of risk. Fortify helps you assess and maintain that risk consistently – and shows how those assessments directly influence your transaction monitoring, so your controls always match the risk you're carrying.

Your monitoring uses 
real risk

Customer risk ratings directly drive monitoring rules – so controls automatically match the risk you are carrying.

Evolve your model 
with confidence

Test changes and immediately see their impact on scores and alerts before rolling them out.

Defend every risk 
decision

Each score includes a clear breakdown 
of contributing factors – so you can explain outcomes to the regulator with confidence.

intelligent workflows

One connected workflow that keeps risk current at every stage

Manage customer risk across four stages. Each one builds on the last – so your risk view is always current, your monitoring always aligned, and every decision always explainable.

Onboarding · Risk Assessment

Start every relationship with 
a clear, defensible risk rating

Assess and document customer risk using profile data, geography, intended product use and screening results – before a single transaction takes place.

Use risk ratings in your monitoring rules from day one – higher-risk customers get tighter thresholds automatically.

Trigger enhanced due diligence for high-risk customers with a clear handoff to your EDD workflow

Every classification is explained and stored for your audit log

ongoing · risk assessment

Risk ratings that update when behaviour changes

Recalculate risk automatically as transaction behaviour, screening results and customer data change. You define the trigger events that matter – large transactions, jurisdiction changes, adverse media matches, new product usage – and the system reassesses risk when they occur.

Risk ratings update based on trigger events you configure

Customers are reassessed automatically when behaviour deviates from expected patterns

customer risk · transaction monitoring

Monitoring that adapts to customer risk in real time

Risk assessment and transaction monitoring live in the same system. When a customer's risk changes, monitoring behaviour updates immediately.

Monitoring rules adjust automatically when a customer's risk rating changes

Set different thresholds for different risk tiers directly
in your rule conditions

Higher-risk customers are monitored more tightly; lower-risk customers generate fewer alerts

Why Fortify

Risk that stays current. Decisions that hold.

A score is only useful if it moves with your customers – and if you can explain it when a regulator asks.

One connected system

When risk scoring and monitoring run in separate systems, controls lag behind behaviour. In Fortify they're native to the same platform – so when a customer's risk rating changes, monitoring thresholds adjust automatically.

Test changes before they land

Run scoring changes against historical data and see the impact on ratings and alerts before going live. No surprises.

A complete audit trail

Every score carries a full factor-by-factor breakdown – the data, the weightings, the outcome. Whether you're explaining one decision or a thousand, the evidence is there.
