Deep Dive

CUBE has acquired 4CRisk.ai, a Silicon Valley-based regulatory technology firm focused on AI-driven compliance and risk mapping, the companies announced Thursday. Financial terms were not disclosed.

The deal links CUBE’s automated regulatory intelligence and regulatory change management capabilities with 4CRisk’s platform, which is designed to map corporate policies and procedures directly to regulatory obligations, controls and risks.

Founded in 2019, 4CRisk developed a system that analyses internal governance documentation and connects it to relevant regulatory requirements at varying levels of detail. The platform uses specialised language models trained on regulatory and risk source materials, along with an AI-based compliance assistant known as Ask ARIA, to automate the mapping process. The companies state that the technology is intended to significantly reduce the time required compared to manual reviews.

For CUBE, the acquisition represents a move beyond its core strength in financial regulation into adjacent corporate regulatory areas, including cybersecurity, artificial intelligence governance, privacy, labour law and environmental, social and governance requirements. In practical terms, the combined offering is intended to allow organisations to move from identifying regulatory changes to assessing how those changes affect policies, procedures and controls across the enterprise.

The 4CRisk team, based across the United States, India and the United Kingdom, will join CUBE as part of the transaction. CUBE is backed by private equity firm Hg, which invested in the company in 2024.

In prepared statements, CUBE founder and CEO Ben Richmond said the acquisition would extend the company’s reach into non-financial compliance and risk domains. Venky Yerrapotu, founder and CEO of 4CRisk, said the combination brings together CUBE’s regulatory content with 4CRisk’s automation capabilities. Hg investor Joshua Gielessen described the transaction as consistent with CUBE’s objective of building an AI-enabled, end-to-end compliance and risk platform.

CUBE reports that it serves more than 1,000 customers globally across financial services and other regulated industries. Both CUBE and 4CRisk were recently included in the 2026 RegTech100 list, which recognises regulatory technology providers operating in the financial services sector.
