What LexisNexis Risk Solutions does

LexisNexis Risk Solutions is a wholly-owned division of RELX that provides data analytics, identity intelligence, and AI-powered risk management solutions to enterprises and government agencies. The company serves seven primary verticals — Corporations, Financial Services, Government, Healthcare, Insurance, Law Enforcement and Public Safety, and Collections and Recovery — through a portfolio of credentialed products including ThreatMetrix (digital identity and fraud prevention), Accurint (investigative research), Bridger Insight XG and AML Insight (AML/compliance screening), WorldCompliance (watchlist and PEP screening), InstantID and TrueID (identity verification and authentication), Emailage (email-based risk scoring), C.L.U.E. and MIDEX (insurance claims and mortgage data), and Bankers Almanac (financial institution reference data). The underlying technology stack combines public records, non-public information, and publicly available data with predictive analytics, anomaly detection, NLP, and process automation to deliver fraud prevention, KYC/AML compliance, credit risk assessment, insurance underwriting, and law enforcement investigative capabilities.

The business operates on a primarily subscription-based revenue model with enterprise field sales motion, complemented by credentialed portal access per product and a small consumer-facing disclosure portal for FCRA-related reports. The company sells data and analytics to insurance carriers, financial institutions, government agencies, healthcare organizations, and collections agencies, with data broker services registered under multiple U.S. state privacy laws. Geographic operations span the United States, United Kingdom, Brazil, Japan, China, Germany, Spain, and France, with localized websites and language support. The company maintains active Corporate, Government, Healthcare, and Insurance Alliance Partner programs that extend distribution through resellers and integrators, and an Accurint Public Safety Marketplace connecting law enforcement to partner applications via single sign-on. As a RELX subsidiary, LexisNexis Risk Solutions is not publicly traded and does not disclose standalone revenue.
