Akashic for financial services · Banks, NBFCs & insurers

Catch risk before it clears.

Fraud moves across products. Your monitoring watches one silo at a time. Akashic sees every transaction against the whole graph: one resolved customer, real-time pattern recognition, and lineage on every alert your auditor will ever ask about.

[01]  The problem/ THE CHAIN

Four systems watched. None saw the chain.

What each system saw

Three hops.

Card, UPI, savings · six minutes apart

CARD₹49,200 → A. K. EnterprisesNo flag
UPI₹48,700 → AK EnterpriseNo flag
SAV₹47,900 → A.K. EntprsNo flag

Each transfer sat just under the reporting limit. Each system logged its own hop and saw nothing wrong.

When the alert finally fired

Weeks later

Quarterly review · buried in false positives

The chain surfaces in a review long after the money moves. The pattern that spanned three products was invisible to all of them, and the evidence is reconstructed by hand from logs that disagree.

The gap between the hops is where the money leaves, and where the audit questions begin.

What the graph is already saying

RESOLVE

One entity, three accounts

Near-identical names across cards, UPI, and savings resolve to a single beneficiary.

PATTERN

Structuring recognised

Transfers parked just under the reporting limit match a known laundering shape.

EVIDENCE

Alert carries its lineage

The chain, the entities, and every source record arrive with the escalation.

1

Monitoring runs one silo at a time

Core banking, cards, payments, and lending each run their own surveillance. A pattern that spans them is invisible to all of them.

2

One customer, four KYC records

The same person exists under slightly different names across products. Exposure, risk, and suspicious behaviour fragment with the identity.

3

Evidence assembled after the fact

When the regulator asks why an alert fired, or didn't, the answer is reconstructed by hand from logs across systems. Audit is an archaeology project.

None of these are people problems. All of them are architecture problems.

Trust is your product. Architecture is how you keep it.

Scroll through your own bank: the players you already have, and what changes when their data lands on one governed record.

  1. 01

    The players

    Every channel watches alone.

    Core banking, cards, payments, KYC, lending: each runs its own surveillance. A chain that spans them is invisible to all of them.

  2. 02

    Transactions stream

    Every hop lands on one graph.

    Card swipes, UPI transfers and account movements stream in as they clear, not in tomorrow's batch file.

  3. 03

    Identities resolve

    Four names. One entity.

    Near-identical KYC records resolve into one customer, and the chain of small transfers suddenly has a single owner.

  4. 04

    The desk sees it

    Flagged as it forms. Evidence attached.

    The pattern reaches the risk desk in minutes, with entities, hops and source records already assembled.

[03]  How Akashic tackles it/ Four moves, one foundation

The whole graph, watching every transaction.

Akashic sits beneath your core systems: streaming every transaction into one governed foundation, resolving every identity across products, and giving risk teams answers that arrive with their evidence attached.

01 / Unify

Every channel, one stream

Data Pipelines ingest core banking, cards, payments, and lending events in real time. Master Data resolves near-identical identities into one customer across every product.

02 / Govern

Compliance by architecture

Access rules, masking, and retention execute at the platform layer. Every query and every model decision is stamped, so the audit trail exists before anyone asks for it.

03 / Predict

Patterns flagged as they form

Models trained on your own transaction graph recognise structuring, mule networks, and credit deterioration across products, not one silo at a time.

04 / Act

Alerts that carry their evidence

Risk teams ask in plain language and get the chain, the entities, and the source records in one answer. Every escalation is audit-ready the moment it's raised.

Every module runs on the same governed foundation · every answer arrives with its lineage

Let's talk about your risk architecture.

Whether it's a fraud pattern your silos keep missing or a compliance programme that runs on manual evidence, we'd like to show you what surveillance on one governed graph looks like.
