Our client was in the middle of an extensive regulatory remediation for the Central Bank of Ireland. They asked Lysis to provide a highly experienced AML SME to provide input to an Enterprise Wide Risk Assessment (EWRA) and to lead development of a new Customer Risk Rating Methodology (CRRM).
Lysis personnel mapped the firm's business model to Irish regulation to ensure that all relevant regulations were covered and then provided input to the EWRA. We also lead the development of a revised CRRM.
Lysis designed and implemented a compliance monitoring framework for a UK-regulated EMI. The aim of the framework was to ensure ongoing compliance with the Electronic Money Regulations 2011 (EMRs), including with the Money Laundering Regulations 2017 (MLRs).
