Abstract

Legal ontology is one of the most researched areas of Artificial Intelligence & Law, but is less applied in the commercial world. This is mainly due to a historical focus on general purpose legal ontologies that do not capture the variety of definitions and interpretations that apply in different contexts, and a focus on automated extraction over manual verification in a domain where accuracy is of utmost importance. In this paper, we show how the use of a domain-specific ontology within a sophisticated legal monitoring software managed by legal experts can help compliance officers in banks and insurance companies comply with strict regulatory duties in a highly complex and constantly evolving area of law.
