Our client was in the middle of an extensive regulatory remediation for the Central Bank of Ireland. They asked Lysis to provide a highly experienced AML SME to provide input to an Enterprise Wide Risk Assessment (EWRA) and to lead development of a new Customer Risk Rating Methodology (CRRM).
Lysis personnel mapped the firm's business model to Irish regulation to ensure that all relevant regulations were covered and then provided input to the EWRA. We also lead the development of a revised CRRM.
A major Egyptian bank with UK operations had a requirement to identify possible AML and CTF gaps and suggested improvements.
A crypto asset custodian based in the U.K. with global reach approached Lysis with the request to assist them with the process to obtain registration from the FCA which would enable them to operate in the UK market as a crypto asset business. Due to the holding company’s strong global footprint, part of the FCA requirements for registration included the need for a UK based money laundering reporting officer (MLRO).
A U.K. Branch of a major Asian bank needed an in-depth review and enhancement of their AML governance framework. Lysis conducted a success review and drafted all required policies & procedures, and established a KYC Target Operating model.
