On September 2, 2020 Oversight was acquired by TCV,[5] with Luminate Capital Partners retaining a minority equity partnership.
Oversight Systems' software is intended to detect payments to suspicious vendors and alert authorities when insufficient people are involved in complicated business processes.[6] If a transaction or associated entity is in violation of a given policy, a report is generated and the workflow system transmits the report via e-mail, the user interface and periodic reports.[7]
