Finance sector provides instant response in turbulent times with ACTICO Platform

In times of constant political and economic change, banks, insurers and financial service providers need to respond quickly to changes - such as new insights into customer behavior or to changes in financial policy. Users can use the ACTICO Platform to adapt guidelines - for example, those governing credit decisions, the monitoring of payment transactions, or customer communication in real time - within a few hours, test scenarios with altered conditions and then activate these during day-to-day operations. A well-designed framework ensures that no programming knowledge is required. Previously, system adaptations took experts weeks, as external software service providers or the IT department were involved - and this is still the case today at many banks, insurance companies and financial service providers. A look back at the turbulence of recent years gives an idea of how often such adjustments were necessary.

Highest possible scores in several categories for German Software Engineering

The report's vendor profile of ACTICO states that their platform tools are designed for business experts to easily define and manage their decisions across the entire lifecycle. Forrester finds ACTICO's European customer list - which includes Santander, Volkswagen Financial Services and ING - "impressive," adding that they could increase adoption in this incredibly competitive market by expanding more aggressively into North America. The report went on to state that "ACTICO has strengths in decision logic authoring tools, explainability, application development tools, solution accelerators, and security." Further, Forrester calls ACTICO Platform a good fit "for customers that are looking to implement one of ACTICO's solution accelerators, especially for organizations in highly regulated industries."

Clever integration of machine learning into banking processes

ACTICO customers use AI or machine learning when they check whether a payroll in a loan application is forged, a bank transaction violates applicable embargoes or securities trading shows criminal patterns, for instance. "The fact that we have achieved the highest score possible in the explainability, and security criteria is very important for our customers. After all, they are supervised by various regulatory authorities," Hans Jürgen Rieder, CEO of ACTICO, resumes.

TIS Helps Treasury Teams Navigate the Ongoing ISO 20022 Transition After the 2025 Banking Deadline10.12.2025 14:00:00 CET | Press release

BERLIN, DE / ACCESS Newswire / December 10, 2025 / Treasury Intelligence Solutions (TIS), a leading cloud-based platform for payments and cash management, is future-proofing organizations with specialized translation services in the wake of the recent November 2025 ISO 20022 deadline. A major turning point for the financial industry, SWIFT now requires banks to move their cross-border payment messages to ISO 20022. As a result, treasury teams are already seeing differences in how their banks send and receive payment information.

The new universal standard is designed to reduce confusion across markets, improve data quality, and support the level of transparency that regulators around the globe now expect. Moving to ISO 20022 payments takes time and strategic vision, especially when legacy

Majority of Australian Parents (65%) and U.S. Parents 58% Support Social Media Ban for Under 16s, but Kids Say It Risks Cutting Them Off from Key Connections9.12.2025 15:00:00 CET | Press release

New survey of 4,000 parents and children in the U.S. and Australia reveals sharp generational divides in support, fears, mental health expectations, and belief in government enforcement. WASHINGTON, DC / ACCESS Newswire / December 9, 2025 / The Family Online Safety Institute (FOSI) released new research today examining how parents and children in the United States and Australia view social media bans for anyone under 16.

FOSI's study surveyed 4,000 parents and children ages 10 to 17 to understand how both groups feel about restrictions, enforcement, and the broader impact of social media on daily life.
