Tracing Ownership Trade and Money Across Borders Under EU AI Act

Governments across Europe are building new institutional infrastructure to fight financial crime. New sanctions bodies, new EU anti-money laundering authority, and new national strategies are emerging at pace not seen in decades. Each needs analytics that can trace ownership, trade, and money across borders. And under EU AI Act, they need trustworthy AI with right safeguards in place.

Sayari already does significant work in Europe, where its intelligence supports many of largest financial institutions and multinational corporations, as well as government entities. This partnership further extends that footprint into region's government market. DataExpert's embedded consultants and analysts, training academy, and deep roots in European open source intelligence and investigative community give agencies specialist implementation, customized workflows, and in-country support from day one.

"European agencies are being asked to confront cross-border financial crime, sanctions evasion, and dual-use proliferation at pace their current tooling was never designed for," said Gino Flem, Managing Director Benelux, DataExpert. "Combining Sayari's primary-source intelligence with investigative expertise and in-country support means agencies get capability they can deploy, defend, and build on immediately."

"Economic security has become organizing principle of European statecraft, countries in this region saw it first and are moving fastest, with new enforcement institutions, new financial-crime strategies, and serious investments in sovereign AI," said Farley Mesko, CEO of Sayari. "We're investing here because this is where future of economic security is being written, and because these governments have set right bar: they will only adopt AI they can control, audit, and defend in court. That's standard we built for."
