Every WIDTH AI decision cites the exact data point, rule, or policy that triggered it — satisfying MAS Notice 644, FATF Recommendation 16, and EU AML Directive audit requirements. If we can't cite it, we don't ship it.
WORM-locked audit ledgers span every module — KYC, AML, fraud, case management. Seven-year baseline retention meets MAS TRM, MiFID II, and BSA recordkeeping requirements out of the box.
Half the WIDTH team has run regulatory exams, filed SARs, and managed audit cycles at banks and FIs. That operator background informs every product decision — from alert thresholds to SAR narrative templates.
