Why NOTO has been Named a Financial Crime Market Disruptor

NOTO has been recognised as a Market Disruptor in the Chartis Financial Crime and Compliance50 (FCC50), one of the industry’s most established rankings of vendors serving the financial crime and compliance market.

The recognition marks an important milestone for NOTO as it continues to expand its presence across key markets and help financial institutions modernise the way they detect, prevent and respond to fraud and financial crime.

The vision for modern compliance

Fintech continues to grapple with fragmented legacy systems that often fail to keep pace with sophisticated criminal tactics. NOTO’s inclusion in the FCC50 highlights its role in challenging these outdated models with a more intelligent, adaptable and enterprise-ready framework.

The focus remains on delivering technology that enables faster decision-making, stronger control and more effective customisation at scale. By moving away from siloed approaches, the platform allows banks and payment processors to respond to evolving threats with greater precision and agility.

“Our mission is to fundamentally change the way financial institutions prevent fraud and financial crime,” notes Ivan Stefanov, CEO and Co-Founder at NOTO. 

“Being recognised by Chartis as a Market Disruptor is a strong validation of our vision, our technology and the value we bring to banks, fintechs and payment processors navigating increasingly complex risk environments.”

Strategic growth

In its assessment, Chartis highlighted NOTO’s ambition to become a key enterprise fraud management platform, as well as its strong growth, ongoing investment in innovation and continued enhancement of its core technology.

This is supported by the company’s ability to handle the scale required by modern financial services across multiple risk landscapes.

The combination of machine learning and low-code/no-code interfaces is a key differentiator. This enables institutions to customise their solutions without the need for extensive technical overhauls, bridging the gap between complex data science and everyday compliance operations.

Sean O’Malley, Research Director at Chartis, comments: “NOTO’s debut in the FCC50 as a Market Disruptor reflects several factors, not least its ambition to be a key enterprise fraud management platform for banks, fintechs and payment processors in geographies including Latin America and Europe.

“Alongside robust growth and investment in innovation, it is also enhancing its core technology with machine learning models and a low/no-code interface to enable customisation of its solutions.”

Scaling across complex risk landscapes

For NOTO, disruption means more than approaching the market with a new proposition. It means challenging fragmented, outdated approaches to fraud prevention and compliance with a more intelligent, adaptable and enterprise-ready model. 

As financial institutions face mounting pressure from evolving fraud patterns, regulatory complexity and operational inefficiencies, the firm is focused on delivering technology that enables faster decisions and stronger control.

The Chartis recognition further strengthens NOTO’s position as an innovation-driven player in the fraud and financial crime technology space, with a platform purpose-built to support the needs of modern financial institutions.
