RAQB — AI-Powered Financial Crime Intelligence
Research-Driven Financial Crime Technology

Financial crime is connected.
Detection should be too.

RAQB is building intelligent financial crime technology that analyzes relationships across transactions and entities to help uncover complex suspicious activity.

Built in Kuwait. Designed for financial institutions.

The Problem

Traditional monitoring sees transactions.
Financial crime happens across relationships.

Financial crime rarely exists in a single transaction. Suspicious activity can emerge through sequences of transfers, related accounts, entities and behavioral patterns that become meaningful only when viewed together.

Traditional monitoring

Isolated rules on single transactions.

  • Fixed thresholds and static scenarios
  • Each alert reviewed on its own
  • High false positive volume
Connected intelligence

Relationships across the financial network.

  • Behaviour analysed across linked entities
  • Patterns emerge from the whole structure
  • Investigators receive context, not noise

Rule
Alert

A single event, checked against a fixed threshold, in isolation.

RAQB Approach
Transactions+Entities+Relationships+Behavior
Risk Pattern

Signals read together, so a pattern becomes visible before any single rule fires.

CONNECTED INTELLIGENCE
Our Approach

Understand the network, not just the transaction.

RAQB explores network-based methods for financial crime detection, combining behavioral analytics with graph and hypergraph intelligence.

  1. Transactions

    Individual payments and transfers are observed.

  2. Relationships

    Accounts, customers and entities are linked together.

  3. Patterns

    Repeating structures reveal coordinated behaviour.

  4. Intelligence

    Risk context is assembled for the investigator.

Technology

Built around connected financial data.

Machine Learning

Behavioral and risk pattern analysis.

Graph Intelligence

Relationship analysis across financial networks.

Hypergraph Research

Modeling complex interactions involving multiple entities and transactions.

Our research explores how these approaches can complement traditional AML monitoring rather than simply replacing existing controls.

Why RAQB

Research shouldn't stop at publication.

Important advances in AI and financial crime research often remain within academic environments.

Take promising financial crime research and turn it into technology that institutions can actually use.

Building financial crime intelligence from Kuwait for the region.

We aim to develop research-driven RegTech technology for financial institutions in Kuwait and across the GCC.
