Hawk provides financial institutions with explainable, AI-powered transaction monitoring, payment screening, KYC and fraud-prevention solutions. Its modular platform helps customers detect money laundering and fraud in real time, reduce false positives and improve the accuracy, explainability and auditability of financial-crime controls.

A partnership built for impact

Our investment supports Hawk in developing and scaling its AI-powered financial-crime prevention platform. This helps banks, FinTech companies and payment service providers replace or enhance legacy rules-based systems, reduce unnecessary alerts and detect anomalous or previously unseen behaviour more effectively.

“Rabobank has been working with machine learning applications for many years. What impressed us most about Hawk is that they’re delivering compelling results using explainable AI. Their advanced screening, detection and monitoring capabilities align very well with our mission to build a more secure and robust financial ecosystem”

— Martijn Scholtes, Head of Corporate Venturing at Rabo Investments.
