AML compliance

AML oversight, outsourcing, training

AML Services

Our team of certified anti-money laundering (AML) specialists offer a variety of services, including AML oversight and audit support, with a focus on virtual asset service providers (VASPs and CASPs). We also provide CO and MLRO outsourcing solutions and AML training.

AML oversight

Our AML oversight team conducts evaluations of an organisation’s policies, procedures, and controls related to preventing, detecting, and reporting money laundering activities with the objective to comply with laws and regulations related to the prevention of money laundering.

The aim of the AML audit is to identify any weaknesses or shortcomings in the organisation’s AML compliance efforts and to provide appropriate recommendations for improvement.

In standard cases we can audit the AML policy (how the regulations apply), the AML procedures (how to onboard and monitor customers), and the AML business risk assessment (analysing the risks associated with customers, products, jurisdictions, delivery channels, and transactions, as well as explaining mitigating measures).

An AML audit may also be required by regulatory bodies or financial institutions as a condition for doing business with them.

Our team is comprised of certified AML specialists. Our extensive knowledge of AML compliance requirements in multiple sectors enables us to create a custom approach for each client’s unique business model.

Our AML oversight services include:

  • Auditing and developing AML and international sanctions procedures and guidelines in accordance with relevant legislation, monitoring them, and updating them as needed in collaboration with the regulatory authority
  • Conducting an AML audit of your company (rules of procedure, KYC systems, work processes etc)
  • Offering consultations on AML matters, including assisting company employees in their daily work processes
  • Clarifying and helping to implement KYC & KYT requirements
  • Introducing, explaining, and supporting to implement due diligence and enhanced due diligence measures

Compliance outsourcing

We offer outsourcing packages for VASPs, regulated companies and financial institutions seeking solutions for employment of Compliance Officers (CO) and Money Laundering Reporting Officers (MLRO) to fulfil regulatory requirements.

Our MLROs have a strong track record of working with local authorities, regulators, and undergoing audits. They have regional expertise and have been vetted by local regulatory bodies.

We seek to match the requirements of your company with the experience and background required by the regulatory framework and the outsourced consultants work in partnership with the existing team (e.g. already existing back-office).

Our team is comprised of certified AML specialists. Our extensive knowledge of AML compliance requirements in multiple sectors enables us to create a custom approach for each client’s unique business model.
