In a world where risk is dynamic and data is abundant but often fragmented, Moody’s Maxsight is helping businesses redefine how they manage risk and compliance challenges in a holistic, unified way. With a clear vision and strategic advancements, Maxsight continues to evolve with the aim of helping customers streamline compliance and enhance operational efficiency.

Maxsight addresses the issue of siloed risk-relevant data by supporting cross-functional collaboration. This allows shared risk intelligence to flow more seamlessly between departments such as compliance, procurement, finance, and operations. To support timely access to risk-related insights, Maxsight is advancing key capabilities like accelerating the delivery of sanctions data updates.

"We know sanctions data can be valuable to know your customer (KYC) teams, supply chain, procurement, sales, and many other stakeholders organization-wide," stated the Maxsight team. They aim to reduce the sanctions data refresh window from 24 hours to between 4–6 hours.

One transformative area of innovation in Maxsight is its approach to artificial intelligence (AI), which is designed not as a separate layer but integrated into core workflows for smarter decision-making. Current developments include automating Level 1 compliance screening and reducing false positives through a screening agent.

To support trust and accountability, AI components developed for Maxsight are governed by an explainability framework. The Maxsight team engages Moody’s user base continuously to refine their AI strategy based on feedback loops between product development and governance teams.

Another example of market responsiveness is the integration of GBG’s identity verification technology into Maxsight. This collaboration aligns with their commitment to streamlining secure onboarding processes for customers.

Maxsight also saw the integration of the Forced Labor Risk Assessment earlier this year. Developed with the University of Nottingham’s Rights Lab, this assessment helps organizations identify forced labor risks across global supply chains using tens of thousands of data points.

The development of Maxsight remains grounded in users’ real-world needs and governed by transparency as risk landscapes evolve.
