Finch Innovate Featured in the AI in Risk & Compliance 2026 Market Map
Finch Innovate has been featured in the AI in RegTech market map, which is part of the AI in Risk & Compliance 2026 report, produced by Parker & Lawrence Research and RegTech Analyst. We are proud to be featured in the Financial Crime Compliance category of the market map.
The report draws on surveys of 300 senior compliance decision-makers at financial institutions and 100 technology vendors, together with interviews with regulators and market experts. It examines how artificial intelligence is being adopted, governed and measured across risk and compliance.
Why this matters for financial institutions
The report shows that AI is now a budget line in risk and compliance, and not only a pilot project. Financial institutions forecast $703.7 million of AI spend in 2026, which is roughly 30% of total RegTech budgets. At the same time, the report finds that 69.3% of institutions have AI deployment running ahead of their control environment. This means that organisations need solutions that are effective, but also well governed.
What this means for Finch Innovate
Many institutions are adopting AI faster than they can govern it. At Finch Innovate, we apply AI across financial crime compliance, including KYC, screening, monitoring, investigations and risk assessment, so that compliance teams can work faster and with greater accuracy. Every result stays transparent and explainable, and people remain in control of the final decision.
Finch Innovate provides enterprise-grade AML compliance and digital onboarding solutions to banks, fintechs and other regulated organisations. Being featured in the regtech market map shows that our work is part of a fast-growing area of financial crime compliance.
