Singapore, 25 August 2026 — WIDTH, an AI-native compliance and risk decision intelligence platform, has been named a finalist at the ALB Pan Asian Regulatory Awards 2026.

Presented by Asian Legal Business, the awards recognise regulatory and compliance professionals and organisations across Asia. The 2026 awards ceremony is scheduled for 30 September 2026 in Singapore, where the winners will be announced.

Recognition for connected compliance operations

The finalist recognition comes as regulated organisations manage increasingly complex operational demands across customer onboarding, screening, transaction monitoring, investigations, regulatory reviews and audit preparation.

Many institutions still rely on separate systems, spreadsheets and manual handovers. This can fragment important risk information across teams and stages of review. The WIDTH platform addresses this challenge by connecting customer information, risk signals, workflows, investigations, case decisions and supporting evidence in one auditable environment.

Compliance teams can use WIDTH to manage KYC and KYB onboarding, sanctions and PEP screening, adverse media checks, transaction monitoring, risk scoring and case management. Its AI-assisted capabilities help reviewers organise and assess information while keeping people responsible for final decisions.

“Compliance teams need more than isolated tools or additional alerts. They need connected workflows that help them understand risk, document decisions and maintain clear accountability. This recognition reinforces our commitment to building practical technology that supports those operational needs.”

— Chye Kit Chionh, Co-Founder and CEO, WIDTH

Keeping people accountable for decisions

WIDTH does not position AI as a replacement for compliance professionals. Instead, AI supports reviewers by organising evidence, highlighting relevant risk indicators and assisting with case analysis. Human reviewers retain decision authority, while the platform keeps an auditable record of the process.

This approach supports a clearer view of each customer, case and decision across the compliance lifecycle. It also helps institutions connect the evidence behind a decision with the workflow and people responsible for it.

What happens next

According to Asian Legal Business, finalists are selected after its editorial and research teams review submissions against the relevant criteria. An independent judging panel then assesses the shortlist, with winners announced at the awards ceremony.

WIDTH thanks Asian Legal Business for the recognition and congratulates all organisations and professionals named among the 2026 finalists.
