Sigma360

Sigma360 is a leading AI-powered risk intelligence platform that specializes in financial crime compliance automation. The firm provides a comprehensive suite of solutions designed to help financial institutions, corporates, and professional services firms mitigate risk, streamline compliance workflows, and make more informed counterparty risk decisions. Their platform unifies global risk data, proprietary intelligence, core screening technology, and AI automation to deliver real-time risk coverage and significantly reduce false positives in compliance operations.

Founded in 2017 as Sigma Ratings, the company rebranded to Sigma360 in 2023 to better reflect its mission of providing definitive risk decisioning software. Stuart Jones, Jr., the founder and CEO, leveraged his extensive background from the U.S. Treasury Department and National Counterterrorism Center, where he led counterterrorism and anti-corruption operations, to build a platform that addresses the shortcomings of legacy KYC and screening systems. The company is driven by a mission to enhance global transparency by standardizing metrics for good corporate behavior.

While Sigma360 is not an investment firm in the traditional sense, it plays a crucial role in the financial ecosystem by enabling its clients—including banks, fintechs, payment providers, and other regulated institutions worldwide—to manage their own risk and compliance. The platform's capabilities include sanctions and watchlist screening, adverse media screening, perpetual KYC, AML investigations, enhanced due diligence, counterparty credit risk, and country risk ratings. Sigma360's technology is trusted by organizations protecting over $2 trillion in assets and processing billions in transactional value monthly.

The Sigma360 team comprises experts with deep backgrounds in government, banking, and technology, allowing them to build advanced risk intelligence solutions. They focus on leveraging proprietary entity resolution, matching, and visualization techniques to connect diverse data sources and create a unified, configurable view of risk for any entity. The firm has also secured significant funding, including an oversubscribed $17.3 million Series B round in March 2026, led by Moderne Ventures, with participation from Vocap Partners, Orrick, Contour Ventures, and Mosaik Partners, to further enhance its AI automation and expand its global market presence.
