About RedCompass:
RedCompass is a financial consultancy focused on helping major banks compete for the future.
Our team brings together experts from the payments, data analytics, financial crime and strategic change arenas to support our mission to build banks that can compete and prosper in the fast-evolving world of changing customer expectations, adapt to ongoing regulatory interventions, cope with the never-ending challenge to reduce costs and manage the constant cycle of technological advancement to become and remain customer-centric, profitable, sustainable and relevant.
At RedCompass we are committed to the relentless pursuit of excellence for the benefit of our clients. We provide small, high impact teams that work in partnership alongside internal teams and use a holistic analysis of data, systems, business objectives, and market demands to tailor the right approach for solving payments and financial crime problems.

For this reason, we are combining our deep payments knowledge and our background in government intelligence data analytics to develop an open-source data model and data science workbench which will provide key regulatory insights into AML and Transaction data. We will apply this to help detect, prevent and stop human trafficking.
