Point72 Partners with Cambridge Semantics to Deliver Next-Generation Compliance Solution
Global Asset Management firm deploys suite of compliance applications spanning surveillance, investigations, and analysis built on Cambridge Semantics' Anzo knowledge graph platform
Cambridge Semantics is pleased to announce a strategic relationship with Point72 to power Point72's suite of cloud-based compliance applications. Under the agreement, Point72 has licensed Cambridge Semantics' Anzo®, the most scalable knowledge graph platform available today. Anzo offers a broad array of data integration and analytic capabilities including search, business intelligence, and graph analytics.
Anzo is a scalable knowledge graph platform featuring the embedded, MPP graph engine AnzoGraph. Anzo allows companies to integrate and harmonize data from across their businesses and functions into a single, scalable system while taking advantage of the benefits of knowledge graph technology. The graph can model links and provide users real-time updates of millions of daily events across structured and unstructured data. Using Anzo, Point72's compliance team will be able to onboard, display, and search data more efficiently.
"As we tune our applications to keep pace with the fast changing regulatory landscape and improve operational efficiency, we are continually making changes to the algorithms, data model, or the data itself," said Brooke Trahan, Chief Surveillance Officer, Point72. "The speed and agility with which we can now make those changes using our new knowledge graph platform has been a game changer, allowing us to rapidly incorporate new learnings, feedback, and business requirements with almost no overhead or delay."
The industry-first collaboration advances the compliance technology at the firm while helping derive insight from the underlying data. This approach, referred to as a data fabric, integrates data across the firm in a highly reusable way.
"Our relationship with Point72 builds upon our deep expertise delivering knowledge graph and data fabric solutions in the financial services industry," said Ben Szekely, Chief Revenue Officer at Cambridge Semantics. "Asset management, like many regulated industries, faces increasing compliance requirements and must integrate a vast array of diverse structured and unstructured data sources in near real-time. With our approach, Anzo users can solve those immediate problems while unlocking further insights and possibilities from their data."
Along with the platform, Cambridge Semantics provides expert services to assure the success of knowledge graph implementations. "The compliance team at Point72 had a clear vision that enabled our collaboration and the teams worked really well together to assure seamless integration," said Jessamin Yu, Vice President of Customer Success at Cambridge Semantics.
