What’s New
A day in the life of... a Technical Business Analyst
The Business Analyst Team serves as a key link between our technical developers and the end users. Our role is to help clients navigate their journey towards achieving optimal technical and business solutions across a variety of use cases. Day-to-day, we collaborate with Project Managers, Technical Leads (TLs), Solution Architects, and Technology Account Partners (TAPs) to deliver projects and Proofs of Concept (POCs) for clients. We also act as a key point of contact for end users, ensuring a smooth transition and adoption of their new solutions. Meet Esse... I joined Quantexa as a Technical Business Analyst in August 2023, after working on various systems implementations as a Systems Analyst and Management Consultant. I've always worked cross-functionally, bridging the gap between technical and business needs. Outside of work, I love running — my friends joke that “Esse is either out for a run, or about to go out for a run”. Running helps me unwind and de-stress. I also love hiking (although we unfortunately only have a hill in Singapore), so I make the most of vacations to explore new trails abroad. How do you normally start your working day? I’m an early riser and typically start my day at 6 a.m. with either a run or a strength workout. It’s my way of energising before the day ahead. After which I enjoy a cup of iced Americano paired with either a slice of homemade sourdough or a yogurt and fruit cup, right before jumping into my morning stand-ups. How would you describe a typical day? A typical day involves attending daily stand-ups and meetings with clients, usually from IT and Compliance teams. My project work ranges from querying data and collaborating with internal Quantexa teams, to refining our solutions through UI adjustments and engaging with end users to ensure the solution meets their needs—and that they’re actively using it! In addition to project work, I often focus on internal Business Analyst tasks like creating knowledge-sharing materials, offering support to other projects in need of BA expertise, or contributing to BA Academy Reviews for external partners. A meal with some BAs in APAC! What do you enjoy most in your role, and what are the most important attributes of a Business Analyst? What excites me most about my role is the opportunity to bridge the gap between technology and business, ensuring that our tech teams deliver solutions that meet our clients' business needs. The most essential attribute of a Business Analyst is the ability to translate complex technical and business concepts for both technical and non-technical stakeholders. This cross-functional communication is key to success. What are your main goals as a Business Analyst? Facilitate the alignment of technology with business objectives Advocate for end users, ensuring that their requirements are met while controlling scope Take ownership of project aspects such as Data Quality Analysis (DQA), Document Data Model design, Score Design, Entity Resolution (ER) Tuning, and User Interface (UI) refinements. Validate the solution’s effectiveness by engaging with investigator teams and refining the system for measurable impact How would you describe a typical day using Quantexa? A typical day using Quantexa involves exploring the UI for manual ER tuning—whether through Networks or Entity Lab—or identifying potential UI refinements. I also work closely with end users, gathering feedback to ensure our solution addresses their needs. What are your most memorable moments at Quantexa? Some of my most memorable moments have been the times spent traveling to Malaysia for client meetings. Though we had our share of late nights, the camaraderie within the team made the experience truly unforgettable. The project team celebrating a successful demo over lunch in Malaysia! What excites you most about your industry or role? What excites me most is the tangible positive impact our solutions have. Seeing a project go live that helps detect Money Laundering is incredibly rewarding and sets Quantexa apart from the typical system implementations I’ve been part of in the past. What advice do you have for someone just starting at Quantexa? The learning curve at Quantexa can be steep, and even now, I’m still learning every day. Be patient with yourself, don’t hesitate to ask questions, and take the time to go through training and documentation thoroughly to grasp the full potential of the solution. What is your favorite area of the Quantexa Community? I enjoy reading posts on best practices. They offer insights into the experiences of colleagues, the lessons they’ve learned from their projects, and strategies to deliver high-value results efficiently.

This is a significant milestone that lays the foundations for Decision Systems within Quantexa’s Decision Intelligence Platform. What Are Decision Systems? Decision Systems are Quantexa’s configuration-driven scoring solutions, built on Assess. They are designed for rapid configuration of use case specific decisioning models —enabling faster deployment, consistent performance, and easier adoption across supported use cases. Decision Systems empowers users to: Leverage the full power of Assess without writing code. Move quickly from resolved Entities and Graphs to actionable insights. Use out-of-the-box scores and scoring models based on best practices and domain expertise. Focus on decision execution, reducing time spent on data wrangling and complex data engineering. Supported Use Cases For our most proven solutions in Financial Crime monitoring and compliance, we provide baseline coverage across the entire decision lifecycle, from data, to insight, to decisions with Decision Systems. Supported use cases in 2.8 Trade Finance – General Availability Capital Markets – Early Access Retail Banking – Early Access If you're working on a FinCrime use case not listed, Decision Systems may still be applicable depending on maturity. To determine fit—even for Trade Finance—please speak to your Quantexa Solution Architect to get started. Highlights Although Trade Finance is being announced these highlights are applicable to all supported use cases. Simpler User Experience Conditional Configuration You can now dynamically generate only the necessary configuration to deploy your scoring solution, reducing manual effort, improving clarity, and enabling scalable support for new use cases and product capabilities. Simplified Scorecard, Severity, and Scorecard Group Configuration Streamlined configuration ensures that scores and triggers contribute logically and transparently to final decisions—reducing configuration time and improving investigator efficiency. Simplify Score Roll-Up to Customer, Counterparty, and Relationship You can easily configure the aggregation of transaction, entity, and network risk to customers, counterparties, and relationships without duplicating setup thus, reducing required knowledge, setup time, and improving consistency. Centralized Definitions and Validations on Entity, Relationship and Network Scores You can benefit from centralized configuration, validation, and auto-generation of inputs which ensures consistency and reduces time spent on setup and debugging. Optimized Outcomes Segmentation You can now configure segmentation across scores and scorecards with a simplified, centralised setup which tailors scoring to the subject being alerted, all without modifying your ETL. Score Coverage New customer and relationship transaction scores. Including round amounts, unusual transaction types, dormancy, and hub-and-spoke patterns. This greatly expands coverage and enables detection of a wider range of insights. Trade Finance General Availability Trade Finance refers to the provision of finance and services by Financial Institutions (FIs) for the movement of goods and services, domestically or cross-border. Trade-Based Money Laundering (TBML) is a broad term that includes illicit transactions both within and outside formal Trade Finance operations. This use case focuses specifically on TBML risks represented by transactional documents within Trade Finance. The following graph illustrates a typical Document–Entity model for the Trade Finance use case: For full details of the release, please see Decision Systems on the documentation site. Release notes Migration guide Trade Finance Explainer Videos Our series of explainer videos guides you through deploying a Trade Finance FinCrime scoring solution using Decision Systems. These videos are not a substitute for following the documentation during a deployment. Please ensure you refer to our documentation site for the complete deployment tutorial. 00. Introduction We outline the key outcomes of Decision Systems and summarize the key configuration steps. The following videos will describe those steps in more detail. 01. Configuring Your Solution To get started, we show how to select your use case and define scoring subjects, such as customers and their relationships. 02. Performing Data Mapping Next, we show how to map outputs from data ingestion to the selected use case. The mapping process ensures that the original meaning of the data is preserved and remains consistent across your organization. No changes to the source data are required. 03. Configuring Your Scores We walk through the process of configuring a score using available templates. We show how to define severity levels and UI descriptions. As an example, we use the score Customer with Social Link to Watchlist. 04. Configuring Your Scorecards A scorecard is a key part of a scoring system, translating the complex data into a structured, interpretable score that drives consistent, data-informed decisions. This video shows how to build scorecards by selecting scores, assigning weightings, and grouping related scores. 05. Configuring Your Alerting A critical part of the scoring process is communicating key insights to users and stakeholders. We outline how to configure alerting logic to ensure alerts are meaningful and contain new insights. We explore four key alerting modules: When the overall score exceeds a threshold When a scenario triggers but hasn’t been recently alerted When a scenario’s contribution to the score increases When new information is detected in a scenario 06. Adding an Additional Score For the occasions when you need to adapt your existing scoring solution to incorporate additional scores, this video demonstrates how to add the score Relationship Trading in High-Risk Jurisdiction. 07. Configuring Your Segmentation We show how to define and apply your preferred segmentation to your scores and scorecards. In this case, we exemplify how to account for differences between large corporate and SME customers. 08. Investigating Your Alerts In the final video, we will take you through a full Trade Finance FinCrime Solution in the UI. You will be able to see alert, scorecard and scores.
