One of our client's banks flagged areas of our client's Anti-Money Laundering (AML) Governance and Compliance operation as a potential cause for concern. There was a danger our client would be de-banked. Our client asked Lysis to perform an independent review for them to establish if anything was genuinely wrong, including discussing the issues with the bank in question to determine precisely what their concerns were.
Lysis conducted a review of the firm's AML Governance and Compliance capabilities and authored a report of recommendations which was presented to the European board.
The recommendations included:
Our client then asked Lysis to work with them to implement the changes above, including liaising with the bank to make sure they were happy with the new arrangements. Lysis was also asked to take over the transaction monitoring operation on an on-going basis.
A major credit card company and regulated PSP with global reach approached Lysis to uplift their transaction monitoring framework and operational controls.
Our client wished to outsource the Client On-Boarding and AML Operations for its merchant acquiring business in Europe, replacing their current major global outsourcing partner.
Our client was in the middle of an extensive regulatory remediation for the Central Bank of Ireland and the remediation.
