Susan Baugh, Risk Manager, Justice Federal Credit Union
"A top priority for Justice FCU in choosing an anti-money laundering solution was having a system that would be up-and-running fast – with minimal impact on our in-house IT resources. At the same time, we wanted to deploy the most effective AML solution available. With the successful implementation of Fortent Hosted AML, we have met both of these goals. Fortent was able to get the system fully operational for us within our challenging timescales and on budget. We are already seeing the significant benefits that the system delivers, such as the high quality of the alerts."

Howard Smith, Manager, Barclays AML Center
"Fortent's anti-money laundering system is a core component of Barclays risk management strategy and its money laundering detection program. We believe the only sure way of capturing all suspicious behavior is through the Fortent philosophy that every transaction counts."

Kevin Vorwerk, Senior Vice President and Division Manager of bank operations and services, Union Bank
"We selected Fortent based on its track record and its ability to be leveraged beyond anti-money laundering detection. Working closely with Fortent we have been able to implement the system on time and within budget. The system has already contributed towards our objectives of effective and efficient compliance with today's regulations."

Chuck Silverman, AML Program Deputy Director / Strategic Planning and Analytics, Commerce Bank
""In addition to systems excellence and reliability, we have found that Fortent's active User Group community has provided significant value to our compliance processes. By sharing best practices and approaches with other compliance professionals, we have all gained substantive insight into improving workflow, reducing costs, and streamlining our compliance activities.""

Rob Curry, AML Officer, Fifth Third Bancorp
"The rapid implementation of the anti-money laundering system has ensured that we address new regulations while enhancing our existing program. Fortent and IBM have delivered the Fortent solution on time and on budget that is meeting our expectations. Fortent and IBM have helped us to deploy an anti-money laundering solution that addresses compliance requirements and allows us to proactively manage risk across our organization."

Roy Melnick, Group Money Laundering Control Officer, Absa
"We wanted to deploy the very best solution available and did an exhaustive review of all the main solution providers in the market. Fortent's technology demonstrated the most effective detection capabilities and will enable us to monitor every transaction and each individual account for the subtle and complex activities that indicate suspicious behavior. We have partnered with Fortent and IBM to implement the system, which will form the cornerstone of our comprehensive AML program. The Fortent technology will assist us in achieving regulatory compliance, risk mitigation and most importantly brand protection."

Ron Whatford, Director of Group Operations, Lloyds TSB
"Combating money laundering has taken on a new significance and is a top priority for Lloyds TSB. After reviewing the AML solutions available, we determined that IBM and the Fortent anti-money laundering solution provided the strongest offering. We were impressed with both the rapid implementation of the system and the comprehensive AML capabilities that the IBM/Fortent system has given us. We also recognized the power of the Intelligent Enterprise Framework to support a broad range of fraud and opportunity detection functions beyond AML."

Hans-Jürgen Schmitt, Group Money Laundering Officer, Helaba
"Helaba is enhancing its anti-money laundering program to better address strict new regulatory directives and reduce overall risk for the institution. After evaluating a number of solutions available we chose Fortent's comprehensive approach, a decision that was supported by the German Financial Supervisory Authority (BAFin). The AML system's ability to understand every customer's ongoing account behavior and assess the level of risk based on this knowledge will help us to focus our resources on the identified risks."

Todd Nichoalds, Vice President and Manager of Bank Secrecy Act Compliance for First Horizon National Corporation
"We selected Fortent's anti-money laundering solution because of its proven track record as the most effective solution on the market today, due largely to its ability to detect new and emerging money laundering patterns as they develop. We also chose Fortent's technology because of the ease with which we can integrate the solution into our existing systems, and the potential for its use in other areas such as fraud detection ."

June Felix , IBM General Manager Banking Solutions and Strategy
""Financial institutions worldwide are selecting Fortent's industry-leading anti-money laundering solution for its proven results in fighting money laundering and terror financing. While banks, insurance companies and other financial firms pursue customer growth strategies with expanded products and distribution channels, criminal elements evolve new ways to infiltrate their financial operations. Fortunately, innovation is not just the domain of the "bad guys." Fortent's pioneering compliance technology solution, which is also available as a hosted service, has proven uniquely effective at monitoring and analyzing the complex and changing nature of this data across all transactions, and operationalizing it to identify potentially criminal behavior. Its anti-money laundering solution is a critical key tool in the C-suite's drive to manage compliance, reputational and operating risk.""

Andre Wentzel, Group Money Laundering Control Officer at Nedbank
"In order to strengthen our anti-money laundering efforts we have deployed the most effective and proven AML solution, built on best practice available on the global market today. We have been able to rapidly integrate Fortent's anti-money laundering solution into our existing systems without any issues."

John Wolff, Executive Director, Corporation of American Banking/ABA
"We selected Fortent's anti-money laundering solution based on its market leading capabilities and demonstrated ability to meet the needs of national, regional and local financial institutions."

Jim Richards, Executive Vice-President, BSA Compliance Officer, Wells Fargo & Co., commenting on the challenge of meeting AML/BSA regulatory compliance requirements.
""We'll be judged tomorrow on what we're building today under standards and expectations that have not yet been established based on 'best practices' that have not been shared or communicated.""
