ADVANCE.AI, a Singapore-based artificial intelligence (AI) and big data company, has teamed up with Dow Jones, a global provider of news and business information, to strengthen its core suite of B2B risk and compliance products across South and Southeast Asian markets.

Under the partnership, ADVANCE.AI will integrate Dow Jones’ anti-money laundering (AML), risk and compliance data into its core suite of services comprising digital identity verification, risk and credit scoring, and digital lending.

The AI firm said that collaboration will enhance the robustness and efficiency of its product suite, which serves enterprises in the banking, financial services, fintech, payments, retail, and e-commerce sectors.

In a Reuters report yesterday, ADVANCE.AI is said to be raising about US$200 million from private equity firm Warburg Pincus in a funding round that will cement its status as a unicorn.
