Your Questions Answered
What does the Law on the Prevention of Money Laundering require?
Risk-based AML/CFT arrangements: a business-wide risk assessment, customer due diligence scaled to risk, ongoing monitoring, suspicious activity reporting, sanctions screening, training, and governance ownership.
How should customer due diligence work?
Risk-based from the start: verify identity, understand ownership and purpose, apply enhanced measures where risk is higher, and keep information current through ongoing monitoring.
What about sanctions compliance?
EU sanctions apply directly and carry strict liability in practice. Firms need effective screening, clear escalation procedures, and awareness that exposure hides in ownership structures.
How is transaction monitoring supervised?
Supervisors test calibration and outcomes: whether scenarios reflect your actual risks, whether alerts are investigated on time, and whether the system evolves with the business.
Can you review our financial crime framework?
Yes. We conduct independent AML/CFT reviews covering governance, risk assessment, due diligence, monitoring, and reporting, with practical findings your team can implement.
