Overview

Compliance is in our blood

At BeyondFS, we understand the financial crime landscape—its history, nuances, how regulators interpret and enforce rules, and where things are headed.

We are experts at translating financial crime regulations into operational requirements, identifying gaps, and designing and implementing solutions to achieve compliance. Whether it’s applying new rules or redesigning an entire AML or KYC framework, we set up the right controls quickly and with minimal risk.

Our Strengths

What we do best

Advisory Services
We review your frameworks, policies, and risk models to keep you ahead of regulatory changes in financial crime. From embedding new regulations to aligning risk-based models with industry standards, we ensure your organisation stays compliant.

Remediation and Enforcement
We specialise in restoring compliance and rebuilding trust in critical circumstances, often stepping in where others have failed. Our work includes remediating breaches and redesigning financial crime frameworks to meet enforcement actions or fines. We use a proven and rigorous closure framework to provide regulators with the evidence they demand.

Financial Crime Operations
We design, build, and improve operating models for AML, Know Your Customer (KYC), and Client Lifecycle Management (CLM). Our focus is on automating processes, reducing risk, and improving efficiency. Wherever possible, we use digital solutions to deliver full oversight and robust control.

Why this matters
You will benefit from working with a consultancy that understands financial crime requirements and how they apply to institutions in your sector. Our expertise helps you avoid the risk of costly mistakes or misinterpretations. You can rely on our direct experience of what regulators expect and how to present it, while balancing the operational and commercial realities of your business.

Challenges we address:

  • Adapting your business to comply with new financial crime regulations effectively.
  • Designing and delivering target operating models for AML, KYC, and client lifecycle management.
  • Improving financial crime controls and operational risk management.
  • Closing compliance gaps to avoid audits and enforcement actions.
  • Managing large-scale financial crime remediation programmes.
