AI-Powered Experian Assistant for Model Risk Management Wins 2026 BIG Innovation Award

COSTA MESA, Calif. - Thursday, 05. February 2026


Highlights how Experian’s AI capabilities help global financial institutions keep regulatory documentation aligned with rapid model innovations


 


(BUSINESS WIRE)--Experian today announced that its recently launched, AI‑powered Experian Assistant for Model Risk Management has been awarded the 2026 BIG Innovation Award in the Innovative Products category. Recognizing trailblazers across industries since 2014, this global award celebrates exceptional innovation and the value it brings to a recipient’s clients, stakeholders and community.


Fully integrated into the Experian Ascend Platform™ and powered by ValidMind technology, Experian Assistant for Model Risk Management helps accelerate model validation, improve auditability and reduce regulatory risk. By offering standardized templates, centralized documentation and streamlined workflow approvals, the solution empowers financial institutions to meet regulatory guidelines in today’s AI-driven model development.


“The AI-enabled speed of data analytics and model development is driving unprecedented business opportunities for financial institutions, but it comes with a significant challenge: global regulations that require time-consuming documentation,” said Vijay Mehta, EVP, Global Solutions and Analytics, Experian Software Solutions. “Experian Assistant for Model Risk Management helps solve this labor- and resource-intensive requirement with end-to-end model documentation automation, and this award recognizes this value to our customers.”


According to a 2025 study by Experian of more than 500 global financial institutions, two thirds of them (67%) currently find it challenging to meet their respective country’s regulatory requirements, and 79% report that regulators communicate supervisory concerns and issues more frequently now than a year ago. Presenting an even tougher challenge, 60% of financial institutions still rely entirely on manual processes for compliance. More than 70% of larger companies say that model documentation compliance currently involves more than 50 people.


“Experian Assistant for Model Risk Management solves a very real pain point for financial institutions by offering scalable and explainable AI across the credit and risk lifecycle,” said Mehta. “With it, they can modernize their model documentation and risk practices and keep pace with fast-evolving AI technologies and regulatory requirements.”


The 2026 BIG Innovation Awards are evaluated by a panel of seasoned business leaders and executives who assess submissions based on measurable performance, responsible implementation and the capability to shape the future of work and culture.

A New Era of Seamless, Reward-Driven Travel

As the new national carrier of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and with a strong commitment to be a digital native, the collaboration will see the launch of Riyadh Air-branded Mastercard credit and prepaid cards.

 

Designed to turn everyday spending into extraordinary travel, the cards will allow cardholders to earn flights, upgrades, lifestyle rewards and exclusive experiences, all seamlessly embedded within the Riyadh Air ecosystem.

Invivoscribe® Launches LeukoStrat® KMT2A + MRD Assay to Advance High-Sensitivity Leukemia Testing in Clinical Trials and Patient Management Worldwide

 SAN DIEGO - Thursday, 05. February 2026 AETOSWire



(BUSINESS WIRE) -- Invivoscribe, a leader in precision medicine and measurable residual disease (MRD) testing, today announced the addition of the LeukoStrat® KMT2A + MRD Assay and Software to its industry-leading oncology portfolio. The assay leverages digital PCR (dPCR) to support both screening and precise longitudinal MRD monitoring for KMT2A rearrangements in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) subjects. This quantitative test is currently available for research use in clinical trials and as a stand-alone kit for purchase by our global customers, and will soon be available as a service in our regional LabPMM® laboratories worldwide.


The assay is available to detect key AML-associated KMT2A rearrangements, which account for the vast majority of KMT2A fusion partners in AML1 and those most commonly targeted in menin-inhibitor clinical development programs. Later this year, the assay will be enhanced with four additional KMT2A rearrangements which are frequently found in acute lymphocytic leukemia (ALL), expanding its utility across leukemias.


The LeukoStrat KMT2A + MRD Assay accurately identifies and quantifies common KMT2A rearrangements that drive KMT2A-translocated acute leukemias, offering translational researchers and biopharmaceutical partners a critical tool to assess MRD and to evaluate therapeutic response. With unprecedented sensitivity down to 0.005% (5x10-5) and precise quantitation through normalization against a control gene, the assay enables far more rapid turnaround time and more sensitive detection of low-level KMT2A rearrangements that traditional cytogenetics and FISH methods miss. The LeukoStrat® KMT2A + MRD Assay and Software streamline both initial screening and longitudinal MRD monitoring from a single workflow, facilitating efficient implementation both in research laboratories and as a service supporting clinical research.


"Invivoscribe is setting a new standard for how researchers and biopharmaceutical partners can identify, monitor and understand disease response," said Jeff Miller, CEO and CSO at Invivoscribe. "Our LeukoStrat KMT2A + MRD Assay provides partners with a powerful tool for exploratory and pivotal analyses in menin-inhibitor trials, offering precise insights into subject response throughout treatment. This assay builds on our international reputation as the ideal partner for pharmaceuticals looking to accelerate KMT2A trials using MRD as a surrogate endpoint and for companion diagnostic development as these therapies advance toward approval."


The assay integrates with LeukoStrat® KMT2A + MRD Software for rapid, objective analysis, enabling labs and biopharmaceutical partners to unlock complex molecular insights. When paired with Invivoscribe's globally standardized LabPMM® network and regulatory expertise, it supports the full development pathway from early-phase trials through CDx validation and commercialization.


For a comprehensive approach to therapy development, biopharmaceutical partners can combine the LeukoStrat KMT2A + MRD Assay for treatment monitoring with Invivoscribe's established myeloid portfolio of IVDR and research use only LeukoStrat CDx and MRD assays, including prognostic biomarkers such as FLT3 and NPM1.2,3,4,5 Invivoscribe's proven track record in companion diagnostics (CDx) development and successful global regulatory submissions positions the company as a trusted strategic partner for menin-inhibitor programs progressing toward approval.


About Invivoscribe


Invivoscribe® is a global, vertically integrated biotechnology company dedicated to Improving Lives with Precision Diagnostics®. For over thirty years, Invivoscribe has improved the quality of healthcare worldwide by providing high quality standardized reagents, tests, and bioinformatics tools to advance the field of precision medicine.
