A significant UK and US corporate bank with questions around the quality of the firm’s AML capabilities and customer files
Corporate, Wholesale and Investment Banking
KYC Remediation
A significant UK and US corporate bank
The bank had grown rapidly and an audit in late 2020 raised questions about the quality of the firm’s AML capabilities and customer files.
Lysis worked with the bank’s AML compliance and AML operations team to provide the following services:
A UK branch of a prominent Middle Eastern bank operating in the wholesale and correspondent banking space. The bank is subject to UK regulatory oversight and provides services to a range of international clients.
Two global banks merged and Lysis was asked to manage the integration of the KYC Operations functions globally for the wholesale & Investment Banking division covering 200,000 customers and 65 countries.
One of our client's banks has flagged areas of our client's Ant-Money Laundering (AML) Governance and Compliance operation as a potential cause for concern. Our client asked Lysis to perform an independent review for them to establish if anything was genuinely wrong.
