Sayari and DataExpert Team Up for Sovereign AI Solutions Across Europe

In a strategic move to bolster economic security across Europe, Sayari, a trusted platform specializing in artificial intelligence (AI) for economic safety and business risk management, has partnered with DataExpert. This collaboration merges Sayari's robust intelligence data derived from primary sources with DataExpert's extensive experience in cybersecurity, fraud prevention, and digital investigations tailored for government institutions. The partnership significantly broadens Sayari's reach into the public sector by providing essential AI-powered tools to governmental, law enforcement, and defense agencies in key European nations, including Belgium, the Netherlands, Luxembourg, Denmark, Finland, Iceland, Norway, and Sweden.

As European governments ramp up their efforts to combat financial crime, they are establishing a new institutional infrastructure, such as sanction bodies, a new EU agency for anti-money laundering, and national strategies aimed at tackling financial misconduct. These burgeoning entities require advanced analytical tools capable of tracing ownership structures, trade patterns, and cross-border financial flows. Furthermore, in compliance with the European AI Act, they need trustworthy AI solutions equipped with the necessary security measures to support their mission.

Sayari has already established a significant presence in Europe, where its intelligence services support many of the continent's largest financial institutions and international enterprises. This new partnership will further enhance Sayari's footprint in the governmental sector by providing specialized deployments and bespoke workflows through DataExpert's dedicated consultants. DataExpert's training academy and strong position in the open-source intelligence (OSINT) environment ensure that institutions receive the tailored support they need from the onset.

Gino Flem, Managing Director of DataExpert for the Benelux countries, emphasized the urgency of equipping European institutions with advanced tools to tackle cross-border financial crimes and sanctions evasion. "Combining Sayari’s intelligence data with our investigative experience and on-site support means that institutions receive capabilities they can implement immediately, justify, and expand upon," he stated.

Farley Mesko, CEO of Sayari, highlighted how economic security has become a driving principle in European state policy. "Countries in this region are leading the way, as they rapidly create new law enforcement bodies and invest in sovereign AI technologies. We're investing here because the future of economic security is being shaped, and these governments have set the right standard for implementing AI that they can control, audit, and defend in court. Our platform was designed to meet such standards. Institutions protecting open economies deserve the same insight into global trade that we already provide to the largest banks and corporations in the region. With DataExpert, they will receive it alongside specialized on-site support."

Sayari's sovereign AI is designed with regulatory requirements in mind and can operate within an institution’s own environment— whether in its cloud, private enclave, or designated cloud for processing classified information. The models developed by Sayari remain within the company and are trained on 12 years of analytical practice, never on client data. Infrastructure costs are stable and not token-based, ensuring predictability in budgeting. Each output includes a source and assessment, with final decisions resting with human operators.

The foundation of Sayari’s Commercial World Model encompasses over 12 billion records from primary sources across more than 250 jurisdictions, meticulously processed to reflect the actual framework of global economic connections. Through DataExpert, institutions in the region can leverage this technology for priority tasks recognized by their governments, including:

  • - Tracking complex, illegal financial networks across borders for financial analytical units and law enforcement purposes;
  • - Enforcing export controls and trade regulations regarding dual-use goods, including the redirection of products through third-party countries and networks owned by so-called shadow fleets;
  • - Mapping networks involved in sanction evasion, hidden behind multi-layered corporate structures;
  • - Verifying beneficial ownership and the integrity of registries;
  • - Assessing supply chain risks for defense and national security, from foreign ownership, control or influence to dependencies on critical materials;
  • - Securing investments in light of new EU regulations on foreign direct investment monitoring, which require the modernization of national systems across the region.

To shed light on this significant development, Sayari and DataExpert will co-host a webinar on September 1, from 10:00 to 11:00 CET titled "Following the Paper Trails: Tracing Chinese Money Laundering Organizations from the Golden Triangle to Europe using Sayari." This session will showcase how investigators leverage data on corporate ownership and trade registries to track illicit financial flows across borders and reveal the networks behind them.
