About us | Plenitude

We are built around a simple choice.

To go deep on one problem, rather than be broad across many.

Since 2012, we have focused exclusively on economic crime, working with some of the world's largest financial institutions on some of the industry's most challenging programmes.

Economic crime is not a problem that can be solved from one perspective.

Economic crime, and the regulations around it, can’t be addressed from one perspective. It runs across customers, controls, operations, technology and the people who make it work. Understanding how those connect is what lets us bring judgement when the answer isn’t straightforward.

Regulation
Customers
Controls
Operations
Technology
People

We believe depth changes what you can do.

That means knowing how risk develops across the customer lifecycle, how weaknesses in one part of the system can create problems somewhere else, and how a control that looks sound on paper can fail against real-world behaviour.

It means being able to move between strategy and implementation, regulatory expectation and operational reality, technology and human judgement.

And it means staying with the problem until the change works, not simply identifying what is wrong and handing the client a report.

The industry is moving from having controls to proving they work.

Regulatory expectations have changed. Enforcement fines, personal accountability under SMCR, and the pace of fraud and AI-enabled threats have all increased the pressure on firms to demonstrate that their frameworks work in practice.

We believe that changes the role of an adviser. The value isn't simply knowing the regulation or producing another set of recommendations. It is being able to look at the evidence, understand what it means, challenge assumptions, make sound judgements and help the organisation act on them.

That is the kind of specialist firm we have built.

Then
Having a framework and controls in place
Now
Evidencing it holds up and the controls are effective

Technology should extend judgement, not replace it.

AI is changing economic crime. We use technology to accelerate analysis, codify our institutional knowledge and make our expertise more consistent and scalable, while keeping judgement and accountability with our people.

01

AI-enabled delivery

Our AI-enabled delivery model is engineered around persistent context, structured guardrails and named accountability. So you get faster, more consistent delivery you can stand behind, and the rigour of a larger team without the cost of one.

02

AI assurance

Our AI Assurance Framework, adapted from the NIST AI Risk Management Framework and operationalised through our Risk Taxonomy and G3MA Assurance Framework, gives you a structured approach to assuring AI, so you can adopt it faster with the evidence and accountability to defend its use.

03

An eight-year track record

We also have an eight-year track record building and deploying RegTech products and AI solutions used by some of the world's largest financial institutions, including Supernova, RegSight, Compass and Policy Gap Analysis.

Independence is part of the model.

We have no audit relationship to protect and are vendor agnostic. That means there is nothing competing with our judgement when we advise a client. Our recommendations can follow the evidence and what the organisation actually needs.

Our appointment to the FCA Skilled Person Panel reflects the expertise and independence we bring to regulatory reviews, giving us a mandate to support the regulator on some of the industry's most sensitive issues.

FCA Skilled Person Panel
Appointed across five lots.
D · Conduct of business
E · Financial crime
F · Market abuse
P · Business consultancy
R · Resource augmentation

We believe senior people should stay close to the work.

The person who understands the problem should remain accountable for solving it. Our delivery model is led by a senior practitioner, accountable throughout the engagement.

That matters particularly in economic crime, where decisions can carry significant regulatory, financial and reputational consequences. Senior expertise shouldn't disappear once the proposal is signed.

Partner-led
A named senior practitioner, accountable throughout every engagement, from proposal to close.

We want our clients to become stronger, not more dependent on us.

Our role isn't to create a permanent requirement for Plenitude. Where we provide technology, managed services or transformation support, the objective is to build sustainable capability alongside delivery.

Success is not measured by how long a client needs us. It is measured by what they can do because they worked with us.

Our RegTech solutions
Supporting clients at scale, while helping develop the capability that sits within their own teams.
Supernova RegSight Compass

Our purpose is to protect society from economic crime, through independent assurance, governance, expertise and judgement.

Economic crime causes harm far beyond the organisations directly affected by it. The ultimate measure of our work is broader than any one engagement: reducing the harm economic crime causes and protecting the integrity of the financial system.

We want Plenitude to be the go-to independent authority on AI-enabled economic crime capability.

Not a generalist consultancy that happens to have an economic crime practice. Not a technology vendor with advisory services attached. The place the industry comes to have its conversation about economic crime, and to help shape how the sector responds to what comes next.

From a singular focus to an independent authority
