Shufti launches Glocal compliance platform

Shufti has launched a new Glocal Platform in London on July 23, 2026, aimed at helping organizations manage identity verification, fraud prevention, risk and regulatory compliance in one system across markets. The company says the platform is built for global scale with local market rules, document types and regulatory requirements in mind.

Why it matters: - Shufti is targeting a common expansion problem: companies often need different compliance tools for different countries, which can slow growth and raise costs. - The Glocal Platform is designed to consolidate sign-up, identity checks, monitoring and remediation into one compliance workflow. - A single platform could reduce the need for multiple vendors, integrations, APIs and separate billing systems.

What happened: - Shufti launched the Shufti Glocal Platform on July 23, 2026. - The platform is a full compliance lifecycle management solution for identity verification, fraud prevention, risk assessment and regulatory compliance. - The product is built to work across industries, regions and use cases. - The launch took place in London, United Kingdom.

The details: - The platform is developed entirely in-house. - Shufti says the system adapts to an organization’s compliance strategy, customer journey and operational needs through one shared global infrastructure. - The platform is designed to support data sovereignty and align identity data handling with local governance and regulatory expectations. - The full customer lifecycle includes sign-up, KYC, authentication, AML screening, ongoing monitoring and remediation. - The platform supports jurisdiction-specific regulations, document requirements, verification methods and industry use cases as core capabilities. - Shufti says the platform can support compliance needs across jurisdictions including Japan, Gibraltar, Australia and Argentina. - Shufti said the company has worked with 2,000+ organizations worldwide. - Shufti supports identity verification across 240+ countries and territories. - The company 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. - Shufti’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 is certified under PCI DSS, SOC 2, ISO 27001:2022, GDPR and CCPA.

Between the lines: - The launch reflects a broader shift from point solutions to unified compliance infrastructure. - Shufti is positioning local regulatory depth as the differentiator, not just global coverage. - The company is also signaling that compliance tools need to move with businesses as they enter new markets or add new product lines. - CEO Shahid Hanif said the platform is meant to remove the trade-off between global reach and local precision.

What's next: - Shufti says the Glocal Platform is available now. - The company is directing organizations to its website and sales team for more information. - The platform is likely to be tested by companies that need one compliance stack across multiple jurisdictions and regulated sectors.

The bottom line: - Shufti is betting that businesses want one compliance platform that can handle local rules without adding more vendors every time they expand.
