About this list
Financial supervision and public accountability ask the same question of an AI system: who approved it, what was it doing when it went wrong, and can that be shown on paper afterwards. The firms on this page carry evidence on both sides of that line, and they are not doing the same job. Some build for the institution itself—Civitta's risk scoring on historical declarations for the Romanian Customs Authority, Solita's adverse-drug-reaction application in production at the Finnish Medicines Agency, Kortical's platelet supply and demand model for NHS Blood and Transplant. Some work inside supervised finance—Squirro's institutional roster runs from the European Central Bank to Standard Chartered, Zühlke built VP Bank's investment recommender with compliance filtering in the architecture, Unit8 delivered early-warning risk and fraud indicators at a Swiss bank, and Adnovum runs a claims voicebot for a cantonal building insurer alongside a banking client library. Others sit on the buyer's side of the table: Marinuzzi & Associati's published record is supervising, evaluating and procuring public AI programs rather than delivering them.
Two questions sort this page faster than any capability list. Ask for the evidence package from a prior engagement—model documentation, monitoring design, the human-oversight arrangement, the account of behavior under uncertainty—because in this sector that paperwork is a deliverable an auditor reads, and a supplier who has produced it before will show you the versions. Then establish what sits underneath the build: work here arrives on Palantir Foundry, on a vendor's own engine, on Microsoft and Oracle platforms, or as a system you own outright, and those are different positions to be in long after the project closes.

Expert Insight
Why FinTech experience matters
Regulatory literacy—Fraud detection, transaction monitoring, and credit models operate under supervisory expectations for model risk management, and creditworthiness scoring is a high-risk category under the EU AI Act. Specialists design the documentation, logging, and human-oversight layer from day one; generalists discover it exists when your compliance team blocks the release
False-positive economics—A fraud model is judged by its false-positive rate, because every false alarm is a blocked customer and a manual review costing real money. Specialists tune for the operational cost curve, not headline accuracy—a model that's 99% accurate can still bury your operations team in alerts
Legacy integration—The model is the easy part; connecting it to a core banking system, a payments switch, and a case-management tool built in 2008 is the project. Firms with financial-services experience quote the integration honestly instead of discovering it in month three
Vendor-risk survival—Banks and insurers put suppliers through outsourcing reviews, security questionnaires, and audit-rights negotiations that stall unprepared vendors for months. Specialists arrive with the documentation pack ready, which shortens procurement instead of stalling it
Frequently asked questions
16 agencies in our directory combine verified public-sector client evidence with documented FinTech work. The current top-ranked are Storm Technology, Zühlke, Kortical — ordered by depth of documented client evidence, then our editorial scoring (portfolio quality, credibility, completeness); placement is never paid.
Published rates across this page's agencies run €45–130 per hour (median ~€65). Project totals depend on scope — the rate index at /rates breaks the computed bands down by region, country and team size.
Each listed agency has at least two documented, named public-sector clients — published case studies or engagement descriptions our research actually read, with source URLs stored per client. Logo walls without published evidence carry no weight, which is what separates this list from self-declared directories.
