sa.global has entered a strategic partnership with SmartSearch, a premier anti-money laundering (AML) verification and fraud prevention solutions provider. This collaboration enables sa.global to deliver an expanded suite of AML services that address the unique regulatory challenges faced by law firms.
Through SmartSearch’s advanced verification, sa.global’s clients will benefit from comprehensive identity verification, real-time transaction monitoring, and sophisticated risk assessment capabilities designed to ensure full compliance with AML regulations while maintaining efficient client onboarding processes. For law firms, these capabilities offer particular value by integrating compliance capabilities directly into existing workflows.

“This collaboration delivers tremendous value specifically for legal firms who face increasingly complex AML requirements during client and matter onboarding,” said Natalie Blackhurst, Head of Product and AI Enablement at sa.global. “We’re particularly excited about the ability to integrate SmartSearch’s capabilities with our empower onboard solution to transform how these organizations manage compliance during onboarding. AML verification is no longer a separate, time-consuming process – it becomes seamlessly embedded within their existing client and matter onboarding workflows, ensuring regulatory compliance while accelerating business relationships.”
SmartSearch, which operates under SmartCredit Limited, brings proven expertise in digital compliance solutions, offering cutting-edge technology that streamlines the verification process while maintaining the highest standards of accuracy and security.
