Treasury Prime Partners with Kobalt Labs to Bring AI-Powered Compliance to its Bank Network

Kobalt Labs joins the Treasury Prime Partner Marketplace to support banks in scaling BaaS programs while streamlining legal, compliance and infosec diligence

SAN FRANCISCO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Treasury Prime, a leading embedded banking software company, announced today the addition of Kobalt Labs, an AI-powered copilot for risk and compliance teams, to the Treasury Prime Partner Marketplace. Banks in Treasury Prime’s network now have the option to leverage Kobalt Labs to better manage their third party diligence with AI, including the ability to streamline legal, compliance and infosec diligence in one platform.

“Compliance costs are a big consideration for banks as they weigh the investments associated with embedded banking. By partnering with Kobalt Labs, we’re enabling our bank clients to access new capabilities for third party risk management compliance as they scale their BaaS programs,” said Kyle Costello, Head of Partnerships at Treasury Prime. “Risk, compliance and infosec teams will now have a solution that auto-surfaces any gaps in vendor documentation and contracts, and keeps internal processes auto-compliant.”

Kobalt Labs modernizes and strengthens the entire third party diligence flow for banks and fintechs. The platform is synchronized with every existing financial regulation, regulatory guidance and security standard, and can conduct thorough checks on any external documentation against these regulations within minutes. The platform also automatically integrates with business intelligence sources and surfaces details on beneficial ownership, financing history, negative news, and recent lawsuits and enforcement actions.

“Initial benchmarking shows that our platform boosts internal diligence capacity by over 4 times, increases real-time regulatory coverage and aligns with evidence required during audit periods,” said Kalyani Ramadurgam, co-founder of Kobalt Labs. “Partnering with Treasury Prime is an exciting next step toward bringing this technology to more banks and fintechs so they can strengthen diligence and minimize their compliance costs, all while staying continuously compliant with evolving regulation.”

Additional capabilities within the Kobalt Labs platform include an infosec module that extracts relevant security information and suggests relevant next steps to streamline review, as well as a legal module that instantly identifies missing clauses and risky language in agreements.

“Kobalt accelerates my manual workflow and reduces the time to meet ever-changing regulatory obligations,” said Sarah Mirsky-Terranova, Kobalt Labs advisor and former Chief Compliance Officer at Synctera and POSaBIT.

Kobalt Labs marks the latest in a series of new Treasury Prime marketplace partners this year including FS Vector, IntraFi and Narmi. For more information about Treasury Prime, visit www.treasuryprime.com. To learn more about Kobalt Labs, please visit www.kobaltlabs.com/.
