Solidus Labs Unveils Agentic-Based Compliance: A New Model for Trade Surveillance Operations
By Business Wire Published on May 22, 2025, 17:38 IST
New York, United States:
Solidus Labs , the category-definer in trade surveillance and risk monitoring for digital and traditional asset classes, today announced the launch of Agentic-Based Compliance, a groundbreaking model for surveillance operations that leverages a network of AI agents to deliver exponential efficiency, precision, and intelligence across the entire trade surveillance and transaction monitoring investigation lifecycle.
Legacy compliance solutions have failed to keep up with the rapid modernization and growing complexity of global markets. Compliance teams are forced to work with a patchwork of disconnected and expensive tools that fail to deliver results efficiently. According to McKinsey , compliance analysts spend 80% of their time on low or moderate-risk issues, often repetitively resolving false positives or performing menial work. This inefficiency extends to market abuse detection: Despite the enormous resources and efforts invested in compliance technology, firms continue to face enforcement actions for missed manipulation. Research shows that market abuse like insider trading occurs in 20% of mergers and acquisitions and 5% of quarterly earnings announcements in U.S. markets. More broadly, only 4% of Suspicious Activity Reports (SARs) lead to law enforcement investigations. This isn't a failure of effort – it's a failure of architecture.
Built on Solidus' proprietary platform, HALO, Agentic-Based Compliance reimagines how financial institutions detect, investigate, and resolve market abuse risks. It replaces legacy systems and siloed workflows with a unified, intelligence-led architecture powered by autonomous AI agents that augment human analysts and operate across a multi-dimensional risk environment.
'Agentic-Based Compliance is the only way compliance teams can stay ahead of emerging complexities like 24/7 off-platform trading, enhanced retail participation and the heightened risks they carry for cyber-enhanced financial crimes and cross-product and cross-market manipulation,' said Asaf Meir, Founder and Chief Executive of Solidus Labs. 'Our vision is simple: Compliance operations should be as scalable, intelligent, and efficient as the markets they're designed to protect. Solidus' Agentic-Based Compliance delivers just that, solving for tech sprawl, alert fatigue, talent shortage and surveillance blind spots that cost firms thousands of hours and can reach billions of dollars in losses and fines.'
HALO embeds a fleet of purpose-built AI agents, each designed to streamline a specific stage of the compliance investigation lifecycle — from signal enrichment and alert remediation to model testing, OSINT intelligence feeds, case management, and regulatory reporting.
Born in crypto's highly fragmented and complex environment, Solidus' Agentic-Based Compliance is future-proof by design for all asset classes, leading to 20X faster investigations and saving compliance analysts as much as 5 hours of menial work per day. Like all Solidus Labs' solutions, it was developed in tandem with regulatory feedback – aligning with the current and evolving demands of modern financial markets, including the imperatives of market abuse regulations in the U.S., EU, and other leading jurisdictions.
Poised to power the next generation of surveillance operations, Solidus' Agentic-Based Compliance is already gaining traction among forward-looking financial firms seeking to modernize their compliance capabilities and reduce operational strain.

Adapt or else? How the sell-side is adjusting to new risks
Among examples, Allright says, are market risk and credit risk capital requirements under the Basel framework. The proposal by the Basel Committee to strengthen banks' resilience to risks was written in 2019, but its introduction has been pushed back repeatedly since then. Banks are unsure when, or even if, they should invest in complying with the rule. There is also a trade-off to be considered – which other compliance project must be deprioritized to provide financial headroom for any new rules? 'Uncertainty of when, or if, a regulation is required adds a risk to a bank, who have to make a decision on how to invest engineering resources to meet regulations,' says Allright. Technology risks Technology itself is adding risks to banking operations. As Bloomberg's Global Head of Sell-Side Product Phil McCabe explained earlier in this report, the advent of electronic trading and automation has compressed investors' fees, hastening the diversification of their portfolios into new markets as they search of better returns. This has brought liquidity to once niche asset classes such as crypto, private equity and structured products Moving into new markets requires investment to develop new complex pricing models and deploy techniques to clean and smooth data. These costs can increase further when there is a requirement to provide portfolio level analytics in a timely manner. Search for innovative solutions Focusing on data and its increasing significance in banking operations: consistent datasets, particularly when used for pricing financial securities, provide banks with reliable informational bases for assessing and addressing emerging risks. Additionally, APIs facilitate connectivity to software and modeling tools, enabling banks to effectively utilise the expanding data pools accumulated by the sell-side on a daily basis. However, as the sophistication of data uses grows, many banks are unlikely to have necessary capabilities in-house to smooth curves and clean data sources as well as accumulate all data sets in a timely fashion, and so they increasingly need to turn to data- and technology-specialist vendors. Mitigation technology Sell-side organizations must consider how to achieve technological transformation to address new risk profiles. Building capacity is one option, but it is costly and requires ongoing updates. This strategy may be impractical if the organization's tech stack is fragmented, and systems are poorly connected. As the speed of technological change and the cost of implementation rise, it has become prudent for banks to outsource these operations. A key to meeting the challenges of the new regulatory landscape is access to consistent data sets and pricing models, says Allright. 'What you [as a bank] don't want to have is a risk solution at the top of the house that's different from a solution that the traders are utilizing, because it's likely they will be looking at different numbers,' he says. In organisations with siloed tech stacks, end users such as traders and compliance professionals, may not be working from single source of truth dataset, or a golden source of their enterprise intelligence. This becomes challenging when different departments may have to report to different regulators with different data sets. Having access to consistent data and pricing models ensures banks can satisfy modern reporting rules because regulators require data transparency and accurate pricing models that can justify the claims and assumptions built into disclosures. An additional reason to seek external support is the ability to connect to data and models in structures such as clouds and APIs, which allows for secure integration of external and internal data and provides organizations with a comprehensive view of their risk exposures. It is of great importance to banks to bring huge volumes of quality data into their systems ready for analysis and querying, says Allright. To that end, Bloomberg has developed tools and technology that allows -banks to access software and infrastructure through the cloud and APIs without the need to for large capital outlays. For instance, Bloomberg's Web Services technology delivers lightweight, industry-standard APIs. These APIs provide banks with flexible access to Bloomberg's software and infrastructure without requiring significant capital investment. 'A lot of investment in the past has gone into hardware on site, but these are machines that are not as flexible and scalable as we move into a new cloud-based computing world,' Allright says. 'We see clients trying to access our set of APIs rather than buy in a fixed product that sits on their desktop because they want to utilize the data and manage the data in different ways increasing deploying their own artificial intelligence – they want to commingle it with their data and create their own IP.'

For more information, visit contact one of our key distributors, or come to our booth at the Dairy Foods Membrane Technology Forum, June 2-4, 20025 in Bloomington, MN. How SDC Works SDC kills microorganisms by two modes of action: 1) the silver ion deactivates structural and metabolic membrane proteins, leading to microbial death; 2) the microbes view SDC as a food source, allowing the silver ion to enter the microbe. Once inside the organism, the silver ion denatures the DNA, which halts the microbe's ability to replicate and leads to its death. This dual action makes SDC highly and quickly effective against a broad spectrum of microbes. Traditional silver-based disinfectants have short shelf lives – from hours to days. SDC is a stabilized silver ion complex with a shelf life of several years. The unique bond between the silver ions in SDC allows them to remain in solution while making them more bioavailable for antimicrobial action. About PURE Bioscience, Inc. PURE focuses on developing and commercializing our proprietary antimicrobial products, primarily in food safety. We provide best-in-class solutions to combat the health and environmental challenges of pathogens and hygienic control. Our technology platform is based on patented, stabilized ionic silver, and our initial products contain silver dihydrogen citrate, better known as SDC. This broad-spectrum, non-toxic antimicrobial agent formulates well with other compounds. As a platform technology, SDC is distinguished from existing products in the marketplace because of its superior efficacy, reduced toxicity, and mitigation of bacterial resistance. PURE's mailing address is 771 Jamacha Rd. #512, El Cajon, California 92019 (San Diego County area), which serves as its official address for all business requirements.
