ABM guided our payment institution licence application from start to approval. Their knowledge of regulatory expectations saved us months of preparation and uncertainty.

Markus Weber

The team built our entire AML framework and trained our staff. The regulator's review passed without a single major finding. Genuinely impressive work.

Sofia Lindqvist

Practical, responsive, and honest. They told us early which licensing route made sense for our model and delivered exactly what they promised.

Our MiCA authorisation felt overwhelming until ABM stepped in. They structured the whole application and handled every regulator question with real confidence.

Their internal audit found gaps our previous advisers missed completely. The remediation plan was clear, prioritised, and realistic for our team size.

Your Questions Answered

What does a GRC framework include?

Clear governance structures with defined responsibilities, a risk management process that monitors what matters, and internal controls with compliance monitoring proving the framework works.

Proportionate but genuine: arrangements scaled to your size and complexity, with real accountability, independent oversight where required, and evidence the framework operates daily.

Structured oversight of outsourcing and critical providers: due diligence, contractual protections, ongoing monitoring, exit planning, and a live register. Responsibility is never outsourced.

Through compliance monitoring programmes and independent reviews that confirm controls operate as designed, not merely that they exist on paper.

It has to. We design frameworks with growth in mind, so new products, markets, and headcount extend the existing structure rather than forcing rebuilds.
