Compliance and AML

The Compliance and Anti-Money Laundering (AML) workstream supports banks in strengthening their compliance and AML strategies to enhance risk management effectiveness.

Introduction

Financial institutions operate in a complex regulatory environment characterised by constantly evolving and increasingly strict rules. 

Compliance and AML present significant challenges that require banks to keep up with current regulations and uphold effective frameworks to manage and mitigate risks, all while controlling compliance costs.

Despite significant investments made by banks in the past years in compliance and AML, there is increasing pressure from the ECB and National Competent Authorities on banks to enhance their compliance and AML strategies for more effective risk management.

Challenges

Constantly changing regulatory environment and emerging risks

Staying ahead of constantly shifting regulatory requirements and expectations demands ongoing vigilance, flexibility, and proactive behaviour to maintain compliance.

Additionally, navigating emerging risks, particularly those tied to advancing technologies, presents a formidable challenge. Despite their potential benefits, these technologies also introduce complexities and heightened risks that organizations must continually address.
