Shufti launches Glocal compliance platform for global businesses

Shufti has launched a new compliance lifecycle platform in London aimed at companies that need identity verification, fraud prevention and regulatory screening across multiple markets. The company says the system is built to combine global scale with local market requirements in one workflow.

Why it matters: - Global businesses often piece together multiple vendors to meet different regional compliance rules, which can raise costs and create inconsistent customer experiences. - Shufti’s new platform is designed to replace that patchwork with one system that handles onboarding, verification, monitoring and remediation across markets. - The launch targets regulated industries that need both local regulatory fit and a single operational framework.

What happened: - Shufti launched the Shufti Glocal Platform in London on July 23, 2026. - The platform is a full compliance lifecycle management solution for identity verification, fraud prevention, risk assessment and regulatory compliance. - The platform is built to serve every industry, region and use case. - The company says the product is available now. - Shufti directs customers to more information on its website.

The details: - The platform is developed entirely in-house. - It uses one shared global infrastructure and adapts to an organization’s compliance strategy, customer journey and operational needs. - The system supports data sovereignty and is built to align identity data handling with local regulatory and governance expectations. - The platform covers sign-up, KYC, authentication, AML screening, ongoing monitoring and remediation in a single flow. - Shufti says the platform supports jurisdiction-specific regulations, document requirements, verification methods and industry use cases as core capabilities. - The company says organizations can use the platform to meet local requirements across jurisdictions including Japan, Gibraltar, Australia and Argentina while running one global compliance operation. - Shufti says it has worked with more than 2,000 organizations worldwide. - The company’s experience spans financial services, fintech, telecommunications, forex, e-commerce, gaming, marketplaces and other regulated industries. - Shufti says it supports identity verification across 240+ countries and territories. - The company says it processes 10,000+ document types across 150+ languages. - Shufti says its OCR accuracy is 99.7% across complex multilingual documents and non-Latin scripts, including Arabic, Devanagari, Chinese and Japanese. - The company’s portfolio includes KYC, KYB, AML screening, facial biometrics, passive liveness detection with iBeta PAD Level 3 certification, Video KYC, electronic identity verification, fraud prevention, authentication and continuous risk monitoring. - Shufti says it is certified under PCI DSS, SOC 2, ISO 27001:2022, GDPR and CCPA.

Between the lines: - The launch reflects a broader shift from single-market compliance tools to platforms built for cross-border expansion. - Shufti is positioning local market nuance as a product feature, not a customization burden. - The pitch is aimed at teams trying to reduce vendor sprawl, integration overhead and inconsistent workflows.

What's next: - Shufti says the Glocal Platform is ready for immediate use. - The company is pushing organizations to consolidate compliance operations into one system as they enter new markets or launch new business lines. - Future adoption will likely hinge on whether global businesses see enough value in replacing multiple regional vendors with a single platform.

The bottom line: - Shufti is betting that compliance buyers want one global platform that can still behave like a local one.
