We built the compliance intelligence
platform we wished existed.
United by a single belief: trust in business should be earned through transparency.
KYCopilot was born from 25 years of watching compliance professionals fight the same losing battle - fragmented data, manual research, and audit pressure with no end in sight. We decided to fix it.
We deliver bank-grade compliance intelligence for institutions of all sizes.
We believe that every FICA-accountable institution - from a boutique law firm to a major bank - deserves access to world-class compliance intelligence. Too often, sophisticated due diligence has been the exclusive domain of large institutions with vast resources.
KYCopilot democratises access to enterprise-grade compliance intelligence. Our AI-powered platform delivers the same quality of insight that was previously only available to the largest financial institutions - at a price point accessible to every accountable institution.
We are not just building software. We are raising the standard of compliance practice across Southern Africa and beyond — so that when organisations make decisions with clarity and consistency, they protect themselves and contribute to a more accountable and resilient industry.
Best-in-class people, tools, and processes.
Extensive knowledge of banking platforms and their unique challenges.
Exceptional service prior to, during and after go-live.
Key alliances with global technology leaders for cost-effective solutions.
All activities performed in-house - no outsourcing to inexperienced vendors.
Flexible delivery and engagement models to cater to our diverse client base.
About NGA RiskSecure
The team behind the platform
KYCopilot is developed and operated by NGA RiskSecure (Pty) Ltd — a long-established team of risk and data specialists with over 25 years of experience. Our expertise spans financial crime compliance, regulatory frameworks, and artificial intelligence.
We have spent years working alongside compliance professionals, understanding the real-world challenges they face - the manual processes, the data fragmentation, the audit pressure, and the regulatory uncertainty. KYCopilot was built to solve exactly those problems.
Mark founded NGA in 1999 - more than a decade before “big data” entered the mainstream vocabulary. A Chartered Certified Accountant by training, he recognised early what most in financial services would take years to accept: that compliance risk was fundamentally a data problem, and that technology could surface it faster and more reliably than any manual process.
NGA went on to build South Africa's first patented data capture and intelligence infrastructure. Between 2006 and 2011, the company partnered with Fundamo - later acquired by Visa - to support mobile money deployments across Africa, the Middle East, and Asia, including MTN's pan-African expansion and Pakistan's EasyPaisa launch, bringing financial intelligence infrastructure to markets where it had never previously existed.
KYCopilot is the direct product of that 25-year journey - taking the same investigative depth that once powered large-scale fraud detection and cross-border financial infrastructure, and making it available to every FICA-regulated institution in South Africa in minutes, not weeks.
“NGA has consistently delivered service excellence to clients globally via systems, methodologies, and partnerships that have helped our customers lower their association risk - time and again.”
The Problem We Solve
Compliance was broken before we built this.
Compliance professionals aren't failing because they lack expertise - they're failing because the tools were never built for the scale, speed, and scrutiny that modern regulation demands.
