Expertise
Compliance, AML/CFT & Data Protection
Frameworks that work on inspection day, not just on paper.
A compliance framework is only worth what it can withstand under inspection. We build frameworks that a business can actually operate, then help it defend them when the regulator arrives.
We prepare AML/CFT and data protection programmes for reporting persons and licensees, support inspection preparation and remediation with the FSC and FIU, and advise on the governance consequences when compliance arrangements come under strain.
Who we advise
- Reporting persons under the AML/CFT framework, including the real estate sector
- FSC licensees preparing for or responding to inspection
- Compliance officers, MLROs and their boards
- Data controllers and processors registered with the Data Protection Office
- Businesses addressing sanctions and adverse screening outcomes
