ThetaRay Launches Self-Service Rule Builder and Simulator Giving Compliance Teams Direct Control and Faster Rule Deployment

Business Wire24-07-2025
NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- ThetaRay, a leading provider of Cognitive AI financial crime compliance technology, today announced the launch of its Self-Service Rule Builder and Simulator, two powerful tools enhancing its transaction monitoring solution, enabling compliance teams to create, test, and optimize anti-money laundering (AML) rules faster, with full autonomy and control.
'We designed the Rule Builder and Simulator as truly self-service tools," noted Nitzan Solomon, Senior Vice President of Product of ThetaRay. 'Compliance teams can now manage and adapt their risk strategies independently without sacrificing governance."
Designed to streamline compliance processes and reduce operational friction, the Self-Service Rule Builder offers a no-code interface to define complex rule logic — including custom expressions and aggregations, through an intuitive point-and-click workflow. This accelerates response to evolving risks and regulatory updates while reducing operational friction and approval bottlenecks, without relying on IT or vendor support.
Paired with the Self-Service Simulator, teams can safely test and analyze the impact of new rules in a secure environment, before deployment without affecting live systems. Multiple rule versions can be loaded into separate simulations and analyzed alongside AI models, helping institutions find the most effective suspicious activity detection strategies without risking production systems.
These new capabilities are part of ThetaRay's ongoing mission to equip financial institutions with AI-enhanced tools that strengthen compliance while supporting efficient growth and innovation.
Key Compliance Benefits:
Autonomy and Speed – Users can build, modify, simulate, and deploy AML rules independently, reducing the rule lifecycle times from weeks to hours.
Tailored Risk Coverage – Complex rule logic using no-code customization and aggregation, addressing institution-specific compliance needs with precision.
Safe Testing Environment – Validate new rules in a secure simulation environment before going live, ensuring confidence in compliance decisions.
Optimized Detection – Simulations help teams evaluate rule and AI combinations for optimal results in detecting financial crime.
Seamless Production Deployment – Approved simulations can be applied to production with built-in governance and oversight workflows.
'We designed the Rule Builder and Simulator as truly self-service tools," noted Nitzan Solomon, Senior Vice President of Product of ThetaRay. 'Compliance teams can now manage and adapt their risk strategies independently, with full visibility and auditability, empowering them to respond faster to evolving threats without sacrificing governance."
'This launch represents a fundamental shift in how compliance teams operate,' said Peter Reynolds, CEO of ThetaRay. 'With self-sufficient tools, we put control in our customers' hands, removing operational friction and accelerating their speed and flexibility to adapt to new risks and grow with confidence.'

ProShares Launches First ETF to Target 2x Daily Returns of Nasdaq-100 Top 30 Index

BETHESDA, Md.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--ProShares, the world's leader in leveraged and inverse ETFs, today announced the launch of ProShares Ultra QQQ Top 30 (QQXL) —the first and only ETF designed to target 2x the daily returns of the Nasdaq-100 Top 30 Index. QQXL expands ProShares' $40 billion suite of leveraged and inverse ETFs linked to the Nasdaq-100, which includes ProShares UltraPro QQQ (TQQQ), the world's largest leveraged ETF. 1 The Nasdaq-100 Top 30 Index offers focused exposure to 30 of the largest and most influential companies in the tech-heavy Nasdaq-100. The index features leaders like Nvidia, Apple, Meta Platforms, and Palantir—firms driving innovation on a global scale. 2 'In recent years, market leadership has converged around a group of innovators—many in technology—who are redefining what's possible, a trend that investors are eager to capture,' said ProShares CEO Michael L. Sapir. 'With QQXL, investors can now target 2x the daily returns of these market leaders with the ease and convenience of a single ETF trade.' ProShares pioneered the leveraged and inverse ETF category nearly two decades ago and remains the largest provider in the world, 3 offering funds linked to major stock indexes, single stocks, fixed income, commodities, currencies, cryptocurrencies, and volatility. About ProShares ProShares has been at the forefront of the ETF revolution since 2006. ProShares manages over $90 billion in assets and offers one of the largest lineups of ETFs. 4 The company is a leader in strategies such as dividend growth, high income, interest rate hedged bond, crypto-linked and geared (leveraged and inverse) ETF investing. ProShares continues to innovate with products that provide strategic and tactical opportunities for investors to manage risk and enhance returns. Geared ProShares ETFs seek daily investment results that correspond, before fees and expenses, to a multiple of (e.g., 2x or -2x) the daily performance of its underlying benchmark (the 'Daily Target'). While the Funds have a daily investment objective, you may hold Fund shares for longer than one day if you believe it is consistent with your goals and risk tolerance. For any holding period other than a day, your return may be higher or lower than the Daily Target. These differences may be significant. Smaller index gains/losses and higher index volatility contribute to returns worse than the Daily Target. Larger index gains/losses and lower index volatility contribute to returns better than the Daily Target. The more extreme these factors are, the more they occur together, and the longer your holding period while these factors apply, the more your return will tend to deviate. Investors should consider periodically monitoring their geared fund investments in light of their goals and risk tolerance. Investing involves risk, including the possible loss of principal. Leveraged ProShares ETFs are non-diversified and entail certain risks, including risk associated with the use of derivatives (swap agreements, futures contracts and similar instruments), imperfect benchmark correlation, leverage and market price variance, all of which can increase volatility and decrease performance. The ETF may concentrate its investments in certain sectors. Narrowly focused investments typically exhibit higher volatility. Technology companies may experience intense competition, obsolescence of existing technology, changing economic conditions, and government regulation. Investors could potentially lose the full value of their investment within a single day. Please see the summary and full prospectuses at for a more complete description of risks. There is no guarantee any ProShares ETF will achieve its investment objective. Shares of any ETF are generally bought and sold at market price (not NAV) and are not individually redeemed from the fund. Your brokerage commissions will reduce returns. Carefully consider the investment objectives, risks, charges and expenses of ProShares before investing. This and other information can be found in their summary and full prospectuses at Read them carefully before investing.

AM Best Affirms Credit Ratings of Hyundai Insurance (China) Co., Ltd.

HONG KONG--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- AM Best has affirmed the Financial Strength Rating of B++ (Good) and the Long-Term Issuer Credit Rating of 'bbb' (Good) of Hyundai Insurance (China) Co., Ltd. (HIC) (China). The outlook of these Credit Ratings (ratings) is negative. The ratings reflect HIC's balance sheet strength, which AM Best assesses as very strong, as well as its marginal operating performance, limited business profile and appropriate enterprise risk management. The negative outlooks reflect the pace of the projected fast deterioration in HIC's risk-adjusted capitalisation, as measured by Best's Capital Adequacy Ratio (BCAR), due to the combined effect of elevating underwriting risk and the expected capital erosion from cumulative operating losses over the short to intermediate term. HIC's very strong balance sheet strength assessment remains supported by its risk-adjusted capitalisation at the strongest level at year-end 2024, as measured by BCAR, notwithstanding the projected declining trend. Since its shareholding change in March 2020, HIC has continued to diversify its underwriting portfolio into individual lines from commercial property and engineering. The initial years of this business transformation led to consecutive underwriting losses that dragged the company's capital & surplus from RMB 1.7 billion in March 2020 to RMB 1.28 billion in 2024. Furthermore, HIC's latest business strategy puts stronger focus on insurance for electric vehicles, which is expected to be the premium growth driver going forward. HIC's operating performance remains marginal. The overall combined ratio remains high, albeit improving over the past few years, supported by improved operating efficiency, better economies of scale and stabilising performance in the key motor line. Conversely, the company continues to benefit from a steady stream of investment income through its cash and deposit holdings, with average investment yield in the mid-to-low single digit over the past few years. However, AM Best expects underwriting and total operating losses to sustain over the short to intermediate term. HIC remains a small player in China's non-life insurance market. The company has established good market standing in the niche market of the ride-hailing motor insurance business in some of the provinces where it operates. Nonetheless, AM Best expects HIC's market presence to remain limited in the short to intermediate term. Negative rating actions could occur if there is significant and adverse deviation in HIC's business execution compared with its business plan, leading to material deterioration in its risk-adjusted capitalisation. Negative rating actions also could arise if the company's operating performance materially deviates from its business plan and results in prolonged operating losses beyond AM Best's expectations. Positive rating actions could occur if HIC demonstrates successful execution of its business plan; for example, achieving faster-than-expected turnaround and sustained improvement in its operating performance, while maintaining a supportive level of risk-adjusted capitalisation. AM Best will continue to monitor HIC's business execution. Ratings are communicated to rated entities prior to publication. Unless stated otherwise, the ratings were not amended subsequent to that communication. This press release relates to Credit Ratings that have been published on AM Best's website. For all rating information relating to the release and pertinent disclosures, including details of the office responsible for issuing each of the individual ratings referenced in this release, please see AM Best's Recent Rating Activity web page. For additional information regarding the use and limitations of Credit Rating opinions, please view Guide to Best's Credit Ratings.
