TESS International foresees rapid growth over the next few years as local banks harmonise their know-your-customer compliance processes, automated regulatory reporting and communications monitoring with global standards. It is expanding aggressively in the Asean region, and is taking steps to extend its reach and capture the markets of North Asia and the Middle East.

“The world is our market now,” says Liew Boon Yen, CEO and co-founder of the financial crime solutions provider.
