REYKJAVIK, Iceland and COPENHAGEN, Denmark, June 14, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Pleo, the Danish $4.7B FinTech with 20,000 companies across Europe, has selected Lucinity as its central hub for Financial Crime Prevention after a rigorous selection process.

Founded in 2015, Pleo offers smart spending solutions for forward-thinking companies through a streamlined approach to expense management. Pleo has been acquiring new customers exponentially, serving various industries and companies across the globe.

Lucinity's AML solution leverages artificial intelligence (AI) to support human insights, providing greater efficiency and productivity for compliance professionals. Its highly scalable products combined with its integration-friendly application program interface (API) was the ideal solution to support Pleo's rapid expansion.

With simplicity and stability at the core of both Pleo and Lucinity's products, Lucinity will enable Pleo's compliance team to obtain actionable information through visually appealing and trusted technology.

Through its open design, Lucinity's AML software will also be able to integrate into the Danish Financial Intelligence Unit (FIU) and enable Pleo to manage SARs more efficiently, reducing the review and filing process from four hours down to minutes with intuitive previews, easier editing, and straight-through filing.
