Increasing financial crimes and money laundering activities across all sectors of the economy has necessitated government of every country to step up the vigil and make appropriate amendments to the law to curb such hideous acts and the grave consequences that occur on account of such crimes. Money laundering is a process through which illegal money is injected into the financial system in a systematic manner by disguising its true illegal origin and the usage of such funds for organized crimes such as terrorist financing, drug trafficking etc. It is in the purview of the regulators and financial institutions like banks to curb money laundering and so Anti-Money Laundering measures are at centre stage to curb financial crimes across the world.

Oracle Mantas Alert and Case Management solution is one such risk management application that supports monitoring, investigation and detection of financial crimes and fraud among huge volume of transactions, across various branches in different locations through sophisticated behavior pattern recognition and is widely being used by banks all over the world.

Oracle Mantas Alert and Case Management solution is now integrated with OFSAA 7.2 to provide a common platform to the clients along with other offerings of OFSAA.The mantas next generation UI is being integrated with OFSAA 7.2 infrastructure and is being developed using reveleus forms framework. Oracle Mantas Case management solution is designed to operate as a standalone platform while still fully integrated with Oracle Mantas Alert Management solution. Depending upon the client requirement it can be pre-integrated with Oracle Mantas Alert Management or with third party Alert Management application thus providing more flexibility from the client requirement stand point.

Mantas next generation UI has enhanced features that will support the user during the course of analysis and investigation of alerts and cases. It provides snapshot information on the home page by including a notifications section that provides an intimation of the action items that the application user has to act upon, interactive dash boards which provides a graphical representation of alert and case statistics based on various criteria and also provides a list of priority items to be acted upon by showing priority alert and cases information. From the perspective of an analyst in the bank it provides a one stop overview of the action items that have crossed due date and the ones nearing due date as well as get clear statistics by viewing the dash boards thus assisting in prioritization and planning the course of action accordingly. An additional feature of security administration UI has been introduced through which a user will be provided with an interface to add and remove system users and also assign and modify security attributes from the front end. This provides flexibility to add more users and change the security attributes like access to a particular business domain, jurisdiction, and branch depending on the banks requirement. Mantas next generation UI provides the user with advanced search capabilities in the form of queues search which filters information available based on certain pre-defined criteria set. For example an analyst  may want to view information assigned to him but a supervisor may want view information escalated to him for further review .The navigation menus and the UI look and feel have been improvised to make it more flexible in terms of usage. A user will be able to undertake actions through the various action categories available to him in the form of action buttons that are defined for each user group and thereby can undertake multiple actions at a time and is not restricted to a single actions page. Thus the newly introduced features enable an analyst in a bank to get a bird's eye view of critical information to support the course of investigation.

Thus banking on the flexibility of OFSAA infrastructure Oracle AML Solution is looking at providing a common platform to the clients for the various solutions it offers thus broadening opportunities and scope in the long run.

Thats a pretty interesting article. From what i understand is that we can integrate Mantas Alerts and alerts from external systems into a single case. is this understanding right?
secondly, i would like to ask that if we already have Alert Management up and running and we want to implement Case Management and Regulatory Reporting on top of it, then how much development effort is normally required? and usually how many weeks such an implementation takes?
