Call4Solutions Challenges

  • Adverse Media Intelligence Engine
    Build a media monitoring engine capable of extracting and matching relevant news about companies or individuals from both global and local media sources, in a fully compliant and explainable manner

  • Real-Time AML Transaction Monitor
    Develop a scalable, real-time processing tool to detect suspicious activity while reducing false positives. The solution must support low-latency analytics and minimize disruption to legitimate transactions

  • AI-Driven Alternative Data Collector
    Create a lightweight SDK or API service that aggregates unconventional business data—like logistics activity, energy usage, consumer purchases—to enhance financial profiling and risk insights beyond registry-based data
  • Strategy-Optimization Agent
    Embed an AI co-pilot to analyzeportfolio KPIs and existing rules, run what-if simulations, and suggest optimized strategy tweaks (e.g. adjust score cut-offs, credit limits, pricing) with clear explanations for each recommendation

  • Smart Testing Assistant
    Embed a low/no-code orchestration layer for risk analysts to quickly deploy and manage strategy experiments. The platform should use AI to auto-generate test scenarios and synthetic test data, monitor performance in real-time, and enable one-click rollback to previous rules if needed
