Tradeshift and kompany Announce Their Partnership to Automate Know-Your-Customer (KYC) and Know-Your-Business (KYB) Verifications Through Live Access to Authoritative Data from Commercial Registers Worldwide

In a global and networked marketplace, risk management is becoming crucial to businesses worldwide. The increase of compliance requirements, such as KYC, KYB, AML (anti-money-laundering), and EDD (enhanced due diligence), is driven both by regulatory changes and the commercial need to avoid business disruptions. Risk and procurement teams seek early detection of risks throughout the supply chain and require effective cloud-based tools.

kompany and Tradeshift have partnered to provide Tradeshift’s global customers with the tools and authoritative company data needed to reduce the time and costs associated with supplier verification. This will allow for up to 90% reduction in total costs and risk exposure compared to traditional services. As part of the cooperation, kompany will enable the Tradeshift platform via an app with real-time access to worldwide official commercial register data through its BREX (Business Register Exchange) API. “kompany and BREX will add tremendous value to trading partners on the Tradeshift platform with information to help them reduce fraud risks, collection costs, and third-party risks,” said Lars Krüger, Director Alliance Management, EMEA, Tradeshift.

In the future, kompany will also involve a company blockchain to offer one-stop-access to all available official information and documents on a company and its officers, including the identification and visualization of interconnections with other companies and beneficial owners worldwide. “Going forward, we are not only looking to provide a valid and complete picture of a company, but also want to harmonize the current jungle of company identifiers such as LEI, EUID, REID, DUNS® , Bloomberg Global ID/FIGI, Thomson Reuters PermID, EIN, VAT numbers, etc.” said Russell Perry , CEO and Co-Founder, kompany.

Archer® Proves Purpose-Built AI Beats General-Purpose LLMs on Regulatory Change Management: 95% Verified Accuracy, 80x Faster, 92% Lower Cost30.6.2026 16:13:00 CEST | Press release

In a head-to-head benchmark, a leading general-purpose LLM was confidently wrong 35% of the time on regulatory dates. Archer Evolv™ shipped zero errors. For enterprises deploying AI in compliance, a wrong date is a missed deadline. The more dangerous failure is a wrong answer the model returns with high confidence, one that flows silently into a compliance calendar and is only discovered after the window has passed. Archer® today released results showing purpose-built AI beats a general-purpose large language model (LLM) on regulatory work, and it’s not close. This head-to-head test compared Archer’s purpose-built, vertical-specific AI and proprietary data sets against a leading general-purpose LLM, on a core compliance task: determining the publication, effective and comment-close dates of regulatory documents across six jurisdictions. General-purpose models are a genuine breakthrough, and this is no referendum on their quality. The question Archer set out to answer is narrower and mo

New end-to-end resilience and managed security offerings help organizations reduce security complexity, cut system downtime by up to 50%, and lower remediation costs by up to 40% by bringing devices, security technologies, expert services, and ecosystem partners together under a single operational model As organizations accelerate AI adoption and digital workplace transformation, many are finding that cyber resilience is undermined not by a lack of security tools, but by growing operational complexity and threat sophistication. According to recent research, 90% of IT leaders acknowledge gaps in their ability to defend against AI-driven threats.

Security operations remain highly distributed and siloed, making it increasingly difficult to coordinate response efforts, maintain end-to-end business continuity, and recover quickly when incidents occur.

New configuration-aware commercial intelligence capability connects customer requirements, configuration decisions, and business outcomes to optimize win rates, margin and product strategy. Tacton, a global leader in Configure, Price, Quote (CPQ) solutions for manufacturers of complex products, today announced the launch of Portfolio Performance Intelligence, a new analytics capability designed to help manufacturers understand why products win, where margin is created or lost, and which decisions consistently drive successful business outcomes.

ERP systems show what was sold, CRM platforms track opportunities, and BI tools visualize trends. But when manufacturers try to understand which customer requirements drive demand, which configurations consistently win, or why margins vary across products, regions or segments, the answers are often unclear
