Enterprise-grade security
and compliance

Mercury is built for the standards your regulator expects — how it runs, where your data sits, and who can reach it.

Your data is safe
with us

Your tenancy, your keys, your audit trail.

  • On-prem or private cloud
  • Audit & traceable
  • TLS 1.3 · AES-256
  • Customer-managed keys

Every control we hold,
and the mechanism behind it

Mercury builds AI for wealth management the way it should be built — transparent, private, answerable.

Infrastructure

Isolation, independent testing and tested recovery.

  • Single-tenant isolation

    Each firm runs in its own isolated environment. No shared databases, no pooled storage.

  • Independent testing

    Third-party penetration testing on a recurring cycle, with findings tracked to closure.

  • Backup and recovery

    Encrypted point-in-time backups with recovery objectives agreed per deployment and tested.

Data

Encryption, retention you set, residency you choose.

  • Encrypted end to end

    TLS 1.3 in transit, AES-256 at rest, with customer-managed keys where your policy requires them.

  • Retention you set

    Retention and deletion windows are configured to your policy, and deletion is verifiable.

  • Data residency

    Your data stays in the region you choose, Hong Kong or Singapore, and is never replicated outside it.

Access & Control

Single sign-on, scoped roles, four-eyes approval.

  • SSO and SCIM

    SAML or OIDC single sign-on with directory-driven provisioning and deprovisioning.

  • Role-based permissions

    Access scoped by book, household and function, so a banker sees the clients they cover.

  • Four-eyes approvals

    Material actions require a second named approver, recorded against the action they cleared.

AI & models

No training on your book, full logging, human approval.

  • No training on your data

    Client data is never used to train or fine-tune models, and never pooled with another firm's.

  • Prompt and output logging

    Every model call is logged with its inputs, outputs and the record it ran against.

  • Human in the loop

    Nothing executes on its own. Proposals arrive as drafts and wait for a named approval.

The questions
due diligence asks

Answered here rather than in a questionnaire six weeks into the process.

Where is our data stored?

In the region you choose — Hong Kong or Singapore — and never replicated outside it. Retention and deletion windows are configured to your policy rather than ours, and deletion is verifiable: you can ask us to prove a record is gone and we can show you.

Is our client data used to train AI models?

No. Never used to train or fine-tune a model, and never pooled with another firm's book. Your data is read to prepare your day and stays inside your tenancy. This is a structural property of how Mercury is deployed, not a setting someone could switch off by accident.

How is data isolated between firms?

Each firm runs in its own single-tenant environment. No shared databases, no pooled storage. Encrypted with TLS 1.3 in transit and AES-256 at rest, with customer-managed keys where your policy requires them.

Can the AI act without human approval?

No. Rebalancing, trade preparation and settlement run end to end, but every regulated decision point stops for four-eyes review and a named human approval. Software decides what deserves attention; a person decides what happens. Nothing reaches a client without that signature.

How do we produce evidence for an audit?

Call reports, approvals and reviews are captured when the work happens rather than reconstructed afterwards, each bound to the household, proposal version and approver it belongs to. Filter to the date range a questionnaire asks about and export it. Records can be read and exported, never edited or deleted.

Which regulatory expectations is Mercury built to?

Mercury is built to align with the data-handling and outsourcing expectations set out in HKMA and MAS guidance, and with SFC requirements on record keeping and electronic data. One clarification worth making plainly: Mercury is a software provider, not a licensed financial institution. Your firm remains the regulated entity. Mercury is designed to make your existing obligations easier to evidence — never to assume them on your behalf.
