LMAR

Banking expertise, engineered with AI.
Supervised AI for supervised institutions.
Your AI. Your data. Your bank.
Our approach

Most technology asks you to fit the product. We start with a blank page.

Bring us a regulation, a model, or a question no vendor has productised. Our lab turns it into working software — researched, designed with AI, engineered to bank-grade standards.

01

Research-led

R&D sits at the heart of the company. Every product starts as a question our lab sets out to answer.

02

Supervised AI

Agents with defined roles, permissions and limits — and a human expert approving every material decision.

03

Bank-grade

Audit trails, model governance and regulator-ready outputs from day one. Built to pass scrutiny, not just demos.

The platform

A private AI workspace for your bank, run by governed agents.

Like the AI assistants your teams already use — but built for a regulated bank. Every agent has a role, every action is permissioned, and every answer passes through four steps you can see.

Illustrative workspace

Governed agents

Each agent has a defined role, data permissions and limits — like a well-run team.

Human approval

Material decisions stop for sign-off by the right person, every time.

Complete audit trail

Every prompt, data access, calculation and output is recorded.

Private by design

Runs on private models, on-premises or in-country. Your data never trains shared models.

Policy guardrails

Your policies and regulatory rules are encoded as constraints agents cannot cross.

Explainable answers

Every number traces back to source data, model version and assumptions.

The Lab

Research

Where we study how AI can be trusted inside regulated institutions.

Lmar

Governed agents

The workspace and agent platform every product runs on.

AIFA & beyond

Products

Suites of specialist agents — starting with the balance sheet.

The first suite on Lmar

AIFA by Lmar

Agentic intelligence for the balance sheet. ALM, IRRBB, FTP, IFRS 9 and behavioural modelling — each module a team of governed agents, named after the physics of balance.

ALM core

Barycentre

Repricing gaps, NII and EVE sensitivity, and IRRBB measurement under Basel standards.

The centre of mass around which a system balances.
Behavioural modelling

Hysteresis

Non-maturity deposits, prepayments and early withdrawals, modelled from your own customer history.

When a system’s present depends on its past.
Credit & IFRS 9

Apsis

Staging, PD, LGD and EAD, and expected credit loss with full traceability from data to disclosure.

The extreme points of an orbit.
Forecasting & stress

Ecliptic

Forward-looking balance-sheet projections and scenario stress testing, from base case to severe.

The path the sun traces across the sky.
Optimisation

Lagrange

Optimise the balance sheet against capital, liquidity and funds-transfer-pricing constraints.

The points where opposing forces balance.
Dashboards & reporting

Albedo

Live dashboards, board packs and regulatory returns that explain themselves.

How much light a surface reflects.
The Lab

R&D at the heart of everything we build.

We are a research lab first. We study how AI agents can be trusted inside regulated institutions — and turn that research into products banks can run on.

R-01

Governed agentic systems

Roles, permissions, escalation and approval for teams of AI agents working inside a bank.

R-02

Private language models

Smaller, specialised models that run on-premises and understand banking, risk and regulation.

R-03

AI model risk management

Evaluation, validation and ongoing monitoring of AI — held to the same standard as any bank model.

R-04

Explainability for regulators

Answers that show their working: sources, assumptions and model versions, in plain language.

R-05

AI-built financial models

Behavioural, credit and balance-sheet models designed and calibrated with agents, reviewed by experts.

R-06

Agent evaluation

Benchmarks and test harnesses that prove an agent does the job correctly — before it goes live.

Deployment

Your data never leaves home.

Designed for the data-residency expectations of Gulf regulators. Lmar and AIFA run where your data already lives — and your data is never used to train shared models.

  • Private language models — no customer data sent to public AI services
  • Full audit trail of every agent action and human approval
  • Model documentation built for validation and regulatory review

On-premises

Installed inside your own data centre, under your security controls.

In-country private cloud

Hosted on approved local cloud regions in the UAE or the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.

Air-gapped

Fully isolated deployments for the most sensitive environments.

Lmar Advisory

Practitioners first. We’ve sat on your side of the table.

Our team has implemented balance-sheet, capital and risk systems at banks across the Middle East. We bring that experience to every engagement — with or without our software.

01

Risk & model consulting

ALM, IRRBB, FTP, liquidity and IFRS 9 methodology, design and review.

02

Dashboards & analytics

Management and board dashboards that turn risk data into decisions.

03

Integration & data

Data pipelines from core banking and treasury into risk and reporting systems.

04

Data testing & reconciliation

Automated data-quality checks and reconciliations you can evidence to audit.

05

UAT support

Test strategy, scripts and execution for system implementations and upgrades.

06

Managed support

Ongoing run support, model monitoring and regulatory change updates.

How we build

From a blank page to a working product.

01

Blank page

We start with your problem, your data and your regulator — not a template.

02

Research & sketch

Our lab prototypes on your own data, quickly, with governed agents.

03

Shape

Validated with your risk, finance and audit teams until every number stands up.

04

Rise

Into production on Lmar, with documentation, handover and support.

Ways to work with us

Start small. Scale when it proves itself.

Our name

The sun, and four steps.

Lmar means the sun.

Every sun, ours included, begins as a dark cloud: gathered, shaped, ignited. And once it shines, it hides nothing — whatever it reaches can be seen. That is how we believe AI should work inside a bank: in the open, every step visible, every answer traceable.

And the name carries our method. Every answer Lmar gives passes through four steps.

L
Load

Every number starts from your own data, reconciled to source.

M
Model

Specialist agents apply your approved models and assumptions.

A
Approve

Nothing material moves without a person signing it off.

R
Report

Every answer arrives with its evidence: data, model version, assumptions, approver.

Four letters, four steps, every time. Every answer, in the light.
