KYC360 and UCL Computer Science Announce Strategic Alliance to Pioneer AI Innovation in AML Software
London, 01 July 2025 – RegTech leader KYC360 is proud to announce a new alliance with UCL Computer Science, home to some of the world’s most influential computer scientists, to drive innovation at the intersection of AI and anti-money laundering (AML) compliance.
The partnership will see computer science undergraduates and postgraduates from UCL Computer Science take up structured internships and research placements within KYC360’s engineering and product development teams. These students will contribute to cutting-edge AI and machine learning projects focused on the development of next-generation AML compliance software for financial institutions, law firms, and trust and corporate service providers (TCSPs).
The alliance will focus on several areas of innovation, including:
- The use of natural language processing and large language models in adverse media screening and risk summarisation.
- Application of graph-based machine learning to detect complex ownership structures and hidden financial networks.
- Enhancing customer risk modelling through real-time behavioural and transactional analysis.
The initiative supports both KYC360’s broader strategy of embedding AI responsibly in RegTech, and UCL Computer Science’s commitment to real-world experiential learning that bridges academia and industry.
