The Current Challenges
Legal requirements and recent developments compel Financial Institutions to adopt comprehensive and effective risk-based controls to prevent misuse by money launderers or purveyors of terrorist acts.
Anti Money Laundering, Terrorism Financing, Fraud, and related regulations continue to increase compliance operating costs for companies in the financial services space.
Untested, rubber stamp solutions adopted to appease regulators will not do in today’s environment.
