SIGMA360 has raised $17.3 million in an oversubscribed Series B funding round to expand its financial crime prevention and compliance platform.
Sigma360 said it will use the funding to enhance its proprietary risk intelligence dataset. It also said the funds will be used to “enhance its AI automation capabilities and expand the company’s presence in global market penetration across banks, payment providers, and other regulated financial institutions.”
Sigma360 provides a platform that combines global risk data, proprietary intelligence, screening technology, and AI automation in one system. The platform is designed to help businesses manage compliance and financial crime risks.
Stuart Jones Jr., founder of Sigma360, said:
“To solve this, we built the first full-stack platform that brings together risk data, intelligence, core technology, and AI to accelerate and enhance decision-making across all levels, enabling our clients to manage risk, meet regulatory expectations, and protect the integrity of the global financial system.”
The company said it has grown rapidly in recent years. Over the past two years, Sigma360 has reported 5x growth. The company also achieved profitability in 2025.
The round was led by Moderne Ventures. Investors Vocap Partners and Orrick also participated. Existing backers Contour Ventures and Mosaik Partners participated in the round.

The company says its platform currently protects more than $2 trillion in assets and enterprise value. We also support billions of dollars in transactions every month across banks, payment companies, fintechs, and multinational corporations.
Mr. Jones founded Sigma360 after working at the U.S. Department of the Treasury and the National Counterterrorism Center. His work included counterterrorism and anticorruption efforts in Washington. He also served in Afghanistan and the Arabian Gulf after the September 11 attacks.
said Liza Benson, Partner at Moderne Ventures. “Sigma360 is redefining the $300 billion financial crime compliance industry by building a trusted AI infrastructure for highly regulated markets.
“For Moderne, this opportunity is attractive because we believe Sigma360 will significantly reduce operational burden and regulatory risk across the industry…For partners in real estate, insurance, and financial services, Sigma360 enables faster onboarding, reduced compliance headcount, and stronger risk management.”
