Surveillance does not fail because you lack data.

It fails because intent is invisible to rule-based systems.

Modern markets generate vast noise. Platforms process it efficiently. Yet outcomes remain unsatisfying: high alerts, thin explanations, and decisions that are hard to defend. More data does not equal understanding.

Most systems assume market abuse is a pattern-matching problem. But rules only detect deviations. They describe what happened, not why it matters.

Reasoning, not just flagging.

Korinsic treats evidence as the foundation, embracing probability and uncertainty as first-class concepts.

The Traditional View

LINEAR PROCESSING

  • Independent signals.
  • Threshold breaches.
  • Result: What happened is visible.
  • Cost: Why it matters is lost.

The Korinsic View

CONNECTED INTELLIGENCE

  • Behaviour relative to history.
  • Timing relative to information flow.
  • Context relative to market liquidity.
  • Result: A probabilistic assessment of intent.
