Build the Trust That Moves Money
Whether you are building a neobank, a payment processor, or a lending platform, your partners need proof you are safe. We operationalize SOC 2, ISO, and vendor oversight so you can secure banking rails and scale faster.
When Controls Are Unclear, the Money Stops
Fintech deals move fast until compliance slows them down. If your controls aren't airtight, banks hit pause and some partners never come back.
The Friction Points:
The Bank Partner Wall: Sponsor banks require high-assurance security controls. Missing documentation triggers escalations that kill your launch.
The Vendor Black Hole: PSPs expect rigorous third-party oversight. If you can't prove you manage your supply chain, you look like a liability.
The Regulator Gaze: Regulators expect traceability, not "trust us." Inadequate audit trails increase your exposure to fines and shutdowns.
The Reality: 73% of fintech startups fail within three years. Regulatory gaps and weak controls are major contributors. Don't be a statistic.
“What sets [Aetos] apart is [the] ability to translate complex requirements into practical guidance.”
We Speak the Language of Risk & Regulation
We understand the scrutiny from banks, PSPs, and payment partners. You need airtight controls and clear evidence, not just a policy binder.
