BusinessCloud can reveal its RegTech 50 innovation ranking for 2025.
Our readers and an expert judging panel have together decided the 50 companies blazing a technology trail in regulation.
The RegTech 50 celebrates businesses of all sizes creating original tech for regulation, risk management and fraud detection.
C365Cloud, a system designed to support organisations in auditing, managing & improving their level of statutory compliance, tops the ranking.
The SaaS platform for managing risk, compliance, health & safety, and CAFM Help Desk is complemented by a mobile app – C365Onsite – for field service management.
Wakefield firm C365Cloud is followed by three London companies in Cleverchain, Konfir and Adclear – respectively builders of KYC solutions, instant employment verification, and compliance for financial promotions.
CleverChain is a real-time intelligence hub for verifying, assessing, and monitoring companies, individuals and digital wallets. Founded by the minds that pioneered major anti-money laundering control transformations – including ‘perpetual KYC’ – at leading European banks, it fuses high-quality global data with explainable AI to deliver actionable intelligence and large-scale automation trusted by users and regulators alike.
VERA, its autonomous AI Digital Due Diligence Agent, performs in-depth, contextual, end-to-end due diligence based on the users’ individual policies, including audit logs and quality assurance checks. Meanwhile, its AI Digital Consultants KIRA and LEXI interactively enable in-depth investigations and regulatory reviews.
The top five is completed by Glasgow-based Profylr, which is behind an ‘ecosystem’ which connects banks and regulators with trusted data.
Profylr builds intelligent, AI-powered technology that enables institutions to instantly see their regulatory position across multiple regulations through one connected compliance ecosystem.
RiskSmart, based in Manchester, is in sixth. RiskSmart is changing the game for governance, risk and compliance professionals – by centralising and digitalising risk management, its customers can wave goodbye to manual processes and say hello to richer insights, powerful reporting tools, and streamlined workflows.
TAINA Technology (London), Red Flag Alert (Manchester), Datactics (Belfast) and Ravelin (London) complete the top 10.
Also featuring is Neotas, which transforms third-party risk management through automated workflows, integrated risk scoring, multilingual open-source intelligence, enhanced due diligence and ongoing monitoring.
