Established and proven process for successful AML compliance risk management programs
Challenge
Money laundering, international trade sanctions, bribery, corruption and modern slavery. In our globalised digital economy, it is becoming increasingly difficult to prevent criminals from using sophisticated money laundering schemes, despite the best efforts of law enforcement bodies.
These are enormous challenges for New Zealand businesses who are required to ensure the millions of transactions they process every year meet strict Anti-Money Laundering (AML) and Countering Financing of Terrorism (CFT) guidelines. Failure to correctly identify possible money laundering activity has consequences for any New Zealand businesses involved in financial services, foreign exchange, gambling or credit contracts.
Creating a fully compliant AML and CFT solution for small and large businesses is often seen as a trade-off between cost, customer experience and time.
It does not have to be. illion can help.
