Muinmossaid today (Tuesday) that HACA Partners, a Luxembourg-based audit andconsulting firm, has selected its automated screening and client lifecycleplatform for KYC and anti-money-laundering checks. The dealtakes the Danish regtech outside the brokers, crypto exchanges and investmentfirms that have supplied most of its publicly announced wins.HACA runsoffices in Luxembourg, Paris, Casablanca and Dakar, and says it serves morethan 500 clients doing business internationally. Accordingto the announcement, the firm will use Muinmos to screen its own clients, its clients'clients, and the customers it handles through its outsourced regulatorycompliance service. Neither side disclosed contract terms or a start date.A VendorBuilt for Brokers Lands an AuditorMuinmos hasspent the past two years selling into financial firms and crypto platforms. Itsigned FCA-regulated investment firm Diagram Capital in December 2024, partnered with crypto exchangeXBO.com before that, and in 2025 took an equity stake in Africa DueDiligence, a UKcompany running checks across 54 African countries.An auditand consulting firm is a different kind of customer. HACA is not onboardingretail traders, it is verifying corporate clients and, in effect, resellingcompliance capacity to firms that would rather outsource it.The companysaid its previous process leaned on manual work and individual analystjudgment, which it described as slow and prone to inconsistency.TheScreening Market Is Crowded and Getting LouderRivals havebeen chasing the same budgets with similar pitches. Sumsub, which suppliesidentity verification to brokers including Tickmill from April 2025, bolted on Chainalysis transactionmonitoring in 2024 and sells the combination as a single compliance dashboard.ComplyAdvantage, backed by Goldman Sachs, haspushed AI-based sanctions and adverse-media screening for years. Fenergo boughtAML transaction-monitoring firm Sentinels to add machine-learning monitoringto its KYC stack.Muinmos isselling coverage depth and configurability, telling HACA it screens againstmore than 2,200 watchlists in over 200 jurisdictions and lets clients set theirown risk thresholds. Cédric Leroy, Partner for Regulatory and Compliance atHACA, said in a statement that "the platform can be integrated via asingle API into any existing system," which he called decisive for thefirm's operating model.ThePerformance Claims Are Muinmos' OwnThe vendorsaid its screening agent cuts false positives by 76%, has delivered up to 96%faster onboarding, and has reduced onboarding-related costs by 32% across itsclient base. Muinmos has not published the methodology, the sample, or thebaseline behind any of those figures, and none of them are independentlyverified.Thecoverage claim has also moved. When Muinmos announced the Diagram Capital dealin late 2024, it described screening against more than 1,400 databases. It nowcites 2,200 watchlists, a different unit of measurement, with no reconciliationbetween the two.Muinmosfounder and CEO Remonda Kirketerp-Møller has herself argued for caution on AIin compliance, telling Finance Magnates at London Summit 2025 that usability, accuracy andaccountability are fundamental and that weak implementation can bring fines andreputational damage. On the HACA deal, she said the firm is "atrailblazing firm in a sector that is typically fairly conservative."BrusselsSets the Clock at July 2027Theregulatory backdrop explains the buyer as much as the vendor does. The EU'sAnti-Money Laundering Regulation applies directly across all 27 member statesfrom July 10, 2027, replacing the patchwork of national transpositions, andauditors, accountants and other professional-services firms sit inside itsscope of obliged entities.Supervisorsare also getting sharper about what automated screening is expected to catch.Australia's AUSTRAC named AI-generated identities andfabricated documentsas active laundering methods in May, and compliance panels at industry eventshave spent the past year debating how much of onboarding can safely be handed to machines.The EU'snew anti-money-laundering authority, AMLA, has been operational in Frankfurtsince July 2025 and begins directly supervising around 40 high-riskcross-border institutions in 2028. Fines under the regime reach 10% ofannual turnover.This article was written by Damian Chmiel at www.financemagnates.com.
