Implementing Effective AML Solutions in Banks and Insurance Companies
The threat of money laundering has become a major problem for financial institutions worldwide. Both banks and non-bank financial institutions, such as insurance or investment companies, are under increasing regulatory pressure to implement effective and efficient anti-money laundering (AML) solutions to prevent illicit financial activities. These institutions must not only protect their business and reputation, but also ensure that they do not become unwitting accomplices of criminal individuals or organisations.
Overcompliance in Sanctions Compliance
The proliferation of unilateral and secondary sanctions has led to a concerning trend of overcompliance by businesses, particularly banks and financial institutions. Overcompliance refers to excessively restrictive practices that go beyond the requirements of sanctions regulations.
