History

Actimize was founded in 1999 by Israeli ex-army colleagues who specialized in business intelligence and data warehousing. The company quickly focused its attention on building packaged trading compliance, anti-money laundering and fraud prevention software solutions for the financial services industry. Actimize was acquired by NICE Systems (NASDAQ: NICE) in July 2007 for $280 million[7] and has grown into one of three of NICE’s main lines of business. NICE Systems shares are traded on NASDAQ as well as on the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange; where it is part of the TA-25 Index. NICE Total cash and equivalents as of December 31, 2009 were $548.5 million, with no debt.[8]


In June 2009, Actimize acquired the assets of Syfact, a pioneer in enterprise investigative case management solutions.[9] Actimize acquired rival anti-money laundering software vendor Fortent for $73.5 million in August 2009.[10] In October 2008, Actimize acquired ATM and debit card fraud detection models, analytics technology and a data consortium with billions of ATM / debit transactions from BasePoint.[11]


Accolades

Actimize has been named Most Innovative Anti-Money Laundering (AML) Solution Provider by Financial-i magazine[12], rated as a the only "Strong Positive" in Gartner's MarketScope for Enterprise Fraud Management[13], ranked atop Gartner’s Magic Quadrant for Web Fraud Detection[14] two years in a row, identified by Datamonitor as the only financial crimes vendor out of 29 reviewed with core competencies across all AML and fraud detection areas[15], named as a ‘Leader’ in Celent's "Automated Wealth Management Compliance Solutions" report for its Sales Practices solution, with high score for "breadth of functionality", "advanced technology", "largest live client base" and "depth of client services"[16] and Bank Technology News recognized Actimize as a "Top 25 Innovator" for its Insider Fraud solution.[17]
