FreemarketFX, a global payments and FX infrastructure provider, has expanded its strategic partnership with Napier AI, a London-headquartered RegTech specialising in financial crime compliance, to reinforce security across its international payment flows.
With financial institutions facing an estimated 250–300 money laundering alerts per day, according to the Napier AI / AML Index 2025–2026, the company has prioritised advanced monitoring tools to scale its compliance posture.
FreemarketFX offers seamless global payment processing and FX capabilities, providing businesses with an integrated infrastructure to move money efficiently across borders.
Napier AI will now provide FreemarketFX with its primary transaction monitoring engine. The integration includes Napier AI’s Insights AI technology, which identifies behavioural anomalies by comparing customer activity with global, local or peer group patterns.
Insights from Napier AI highlight the potential economic benefit of adopting AI-driven compliance systems—its recent research indicates that $3.3tn could be returned to global economies through automated AML strategies that streamline client due diligence and high-risk alert management.
Napier AI is a RegTech firm providing anti-money laundering and financial crime compliance software to financial institutions, payments companies and wealth & asset management firms. Its flagship platform, Napier AI Continuum, is designed to turn compliance from a regulatory requirement into a competitive advantage, and the company is trusted by more than 100 institutions globally.
FreemarketFX head of compliance and MLRO Jamie King said, “We are delighted to be working with Napier AI to enhance our transaction monitoring capabilities as we continue to expand globally. Using their AI-driven technology helps us strengthen our compliance framework, reduce false positives, and scale our payment checks while maintaining the highest standards of regulatory oversight. As we enter new markets, having trust and confidence in our monitoring processes is vital to ensure our compliance processes evolve in line with global growth.”
Napier AI CEO Greg Watson commented: “We are proud to support FreemarketFX as they expand their global footprint, using AI to aid their compliance efforts as their volume of payments scales. By combining AI with explainable decision making, we’re helping analysts detect and fight financial risks faster and more accurately to keep payments secure.”
