What maiconflicts does

One platform for conflicts of interest management

maiconflicts is purpose-built for financial services firms to identify, assess, and manage conflicts of interest between client relationships, group activities, and individuals — the conflicts that matter most under ASIC RG 181.

This is not a general compliance platform. maiconflicts is focused entirely on conflicts of interest: identifying them automatically, reviewing them with AI assistance, and managing them with a complete, immutable audit trail — helping compliance teams take a proactive and strategic approach.

The Problem

Conflicts management demands a better approach

Most firms rely on spreadsheets, email chains, and manual processes that cannot keep pace with the volume and complexity of modern financial services activity.

Slow to implement

Traditional compliance software requires extensive configuration, consultant involvement, and change management before a single conflict is identified. Firms undergoing rapid growth or mergers cannot afford long implementation timelines.

No foreign servers or hosting

Financial services firms worldwide cannot afford sensitive deal and trading data residing outside their own infrastructure. maiconflicts deploys entirely within your own environment — no foreign servers, no third-party hosting, meeting data residency requirements in any jurisdiction.

Rules require technical involvement

Changing a threshold, adding a conflict type, or adjusting an approval chain in most systems requires developer involvement and weeks of testing. maiconflicts lets compliance officers configure everything themselves, in plain English.

ASIC RG 181 Aligned

Eight conflict types.
All automatically identified.

RG 181 (December 2025) requires an objective, fact-based approach. maiconflicts applies this standard systematically across all data sources — not just when someone reports a problem.

Critical

Competing Bidders

Two clients pursuing the same acquisition target. AI analyses deal descriptions to detect common targets even when codenames differ.

CLIENT vs CLIENT
Critical

Buy-Side / Sell-Side

The firm advising both buyer and seller in the same transaction — the most direct conflict form under RG 181.

CLIENT vs CLIENT
High

Information Barrier Risk

MNPI from one client relationship that could affect another — including research coverage of active deal counterparties.

CLIENT vs CLIENT · MNPI
High

Proprietary Position

The firm holds a position in a security it is advising a client on — a group vs client conflict requiring immediate review.

GROUP vs CLIENT
High

Lending and Advisory

The firm is both lender to and adviser on an acquisition of the same entity — creating conflicting fiduciary duties.

GROUP vs CLIENT
Medium

Research vs Banking

Research coverage of a company the IB team is advising — a common ASIC enforcement focus that compromises analyst independence.

GROUP vs CLIENT
Medium

Allocation Conflict

Limited securities to be allocated between competing clients with different interests in the same transaction.

CLIENT vs CLIENT
Medium

Related Party

A transaction involving a related party of the bank or major shareholder — triggers enhanced disclosure and board notification.

Conflict Scanner

Configurable per deal type. Smarter over time.

The scanner checks every deal against all configured data sources — personal trading, OBI, gifts, sponsorships, and public sources. Every parameter is independently configurable per deal type. ML adjusts confidence weightings based on compliance decisions, reducing false positives over time.

  • Independent configuration per deal type — M&A, ECM, DCM, lending, prop trading
  • Configurable time windows: how far before a deal to look for trades and gifts
  • Confidence scoring — suppress low-confidence results, auto-flag critical matches
  • ML learns from every compliance decision at your firm
  • Public source scanning: ASX announcements, ASIC register, news search
  • OBI check blocks adding team members when a conflict exists
AI-Assisted Review

AI first pass. Compliance makes the call.

When a conflict is identified, AI runs a first assessment referencing your firm's historical decisions on similar conflicts. It recommends a status and management approach, and drafts communications using your pre-approved regulatory language blocks. Compliance reviews and approves before anything is sent.

  • Classifies conflicts as ACTUAL or POTENTIAL under the RG 181 objective test
  • References historical decisions — learns from every compliance correction
  • Drafts notifications using fixed regulatory language blocks — no hallucination risk
  • Multiple configurable management actions can be selected simultaneously
  • Relationship diagram editor — visualise conflicting parties and connections
  • Uses Claude Haiku for cost-efficient templated communication drafts
