Our approach

Why we're unique

Over a decade ago, Contego, now known as NorthRow, wasn’t founded just as a business opportunity, but as a chance to make a difference to the devastating effects that fraud, and other forms of financial crime, can have on individuals and companies.

The human element

With an extensive breadth of experience and leading software solutions, NorthRow helps businesses to successfully onboard new clients and employees. We do this through robust compliance, monitoring and remediation capabilities giving you peace of mind knowing the burden of risk management is taken care of. We unlock more time for you to focus on the single most important task – growing your business safely.
