POLICIES & PROCEDURES (INTERNAL CONTROLS)
Financial institutions must maintain an effective internal controls’ structure, including robust policies and procedures designed to limit and manage risks while ensuring compliance with laws and regulations. Do you have the proper controls in place? We can review, update, or design your institution’s internal controls framework to meet regulatory standards. Contact us to learn more about how we can assist.
TRAINING
Financial institutions must ensure that appropriate personnel are trained in all relevant aspects of Anti-Money Laundering (AML) and economic sanctions (OFAC) laws and regulations, which directly impact the institution’s Compliance Program. Contact us to learn more about our tailored training options for compliance staff, employees, and your Board of Directors.
For non-financial institutions, it is equally critical to implement OFAC training, particularly in areas such as mergers and acquisitions and also customer due diligence, to mitigate risks associated with sanctions violations or regulatory scrutiny.
Contact us to explore our comprehensive training options for employees and executives, designed specifically for non-financial businesses.
RISK ASSESSMENTS
A Risk Assessment enables financial institution management to identify and address gaps in the internal controls system more effectively. By understanding the institution’s risk profile, management can apply targeted and efficient risk mitigation strategies. An effective Anti-Money Laundering (AML) Compliance Program manages risks associated with the institution’s products, services, customers, entities, and geographic locations. Contact us to collaborate with your Compliance Department in preparing and completing a thorough Risk Assessment.
For non-financial institutions, conducting an Operational Risk Assessment is equally critical. This process identifies vulnerabilities within your business operations, allowing for the implementation of strong risk mitigation measures tailored to your specific industry and regulatory environment.
Contact us to collaborate with your management team in preparing and completing a comprehensive Operational Risk Assessment.
INDEPENDENT TESTING (AUDIT) SERVICES
Independent testing (audit) should be risk-based and designed to evaluate the effectiveness of risk management across all banking operations, departments, and subsidiaries. A risk-based audit will vary depending on the institution’s size, complexity, scope of activities, risk profile, quality of control functions, geographic diversity, and use of technology. This testing helps the Board of Directors and management identify areas of weakness and areas that may require enhancements or stronger controls.
Contact us to learn more about our independent testing (audit) services and how we can support your institution in strengthening its control environment.
CUSTOMER DUE DILIGENCE
The cornerstone of a strong Compliance Program is the adoption and implementation of risk-based Customer Due Diligence (CDD) policies, procedures, and processes for all customers, especially those presenting higher risks for money laundering and terrorist financing. The primary objective of CDD is to help the institution understand the nature and purpose of customer relationships, including the types of transactions the customer is likely to engage in.
We offer comprehensive support to financial institutions in conducting and completing Customer Due Diligence (CDD) and Enhanced Due Diligence (EDD) for high-risk customers, both domestic and international. Contact us to learn more about these specialized services
