Financial Crime Remediation and Risk Reduction

Embedding compliance and eliminating risk exposure at pace.

Overview

Compliance is in our blood. We understand the rules and how they’re enforced.

When regulatory demands grow, or gaps identified, or policies changed, you need to act quickly – with confidence that your controls will hold up under scrutiny.

We’ve helped firms of all sizes run and refresh Enterprise-Wide and Customer Risk Assessments (EWRAs and CRAs), prepare for Skilled Person reviews, and build AML and KYC frameworks that stand up to regulatory challenge. That means we can show you how others are tackling the same issues - and what ‘good’ looks like in practice – while adapting the approach to your risks and your business.

Our proven methods, regulatory credibility and deep operational experience help firms move from reactive compliance to sustainable, risk-based control – without adding complexity.

How we help

Regulation moves fast - and keeping up with it drains time, budget and morale.

To avoid this, we work with you to agree clear objectives aligned with your organisation’s approach to risk, involving key stakeholders in critical decisions.

We introduce robust governance, with a thorough, documented trail of decisions, actions, and outcomes, serving as a complete, evidence-backed narrative from start to finish.

You’ll benefit from proven methods we’ve developed across successful projects, where we’ve delivered outputs regulators value and trust.
