From risk definition to tested control.

Scenario Studio turns an expert's description of risk into scenarios, expected responses and the connected data to test against — in your schema.

    Build a scenario

    Describe the risk in plain English. Get the true positives that must alert, the near-misses that must not, and the connected data behind both.

    Test your controls

    Run the scenarios against the controls you already have. See what fired, what did not, and what was never covered at all.

Pick a typology. See the specification it becomes, and the scenarios generated from it — the ones that must alert, and the near-misses that must not.

Structuring — aggregated ACH below reporting threshold

FinCEN advisory, red-flag indicators ¶14–17

Must include
  • Three or more credits to one account within 7 days
  • Each credit below the applicable reporting threshold
  • Aggregate across the window at or above the threshold
May include
  • Onward transfer within 48h of the final credit
  • Account opened within 90 days of first credit
Must not include
  • A single credit at or above threshold — a reporting event, not structuring
  • Payroll or recurring credits from a known employer
What it generates
True positivemust alert

Four ACH credits over five days from three unrelated originators into a nine-week-old account, consolidated out by wire on day six.

Ground truth: Satisfies every must-clause plus two may-clauses.

Near missmust not alert

Four ACH credits of the same size and timing into the same account profile — all four from one payroll bureau against a registered employer relationship.

Ground truth: Trips a must-not clause. An alert here is a tuning defect.

This is a preview of the artifact. In Scenario Studio you edit every clause, set the thresholds and windows, tune the near-miss margin, and generate the full pack inside a synthetic bank.
