Protecting your organisation from financial crime with a robust framework meeting legal and regulatory expectations
Today’s environment is characterised by continuous change and disruption, where governments, regulators, law enforcement agencies and customers are focused on greater accountability and ever increasing personal and criminal liability.
There is a heightened expectation that Anti-Money Laundering (AML) / Financial Crime Compliance (FCC) should be at the forefront of doing business and an established cultural driver throughout the firm. Multi-jurisdictional business models and compliance requirements make AML/FCC even more complex and increase the risk of non-compliance and the spectre of regulatory censure.
Despite fines for infringing Financial Crime Compliance requirements reaching record levels in recent years, financial services firms are still struggling to meet their obligations. Failure to identify money laundering and financial crime risks, implement robust compliance frameworks, or take appropriate action for control breakdowns and errors of judgement, can have serious reputational, financial and legal consequences for firms and they may not survive.
