The process included an in-depth analysis to demonstrate the various cross-jurisdictional compliance requirements, including the identification and weighting of those risk factors specific to their business and industry. The next step consisted of the testing of a new Customer Risk Rating Methodology on a sample of the client's customers to determine the impact on their Customer AML Risk Rating and thereby ensuring that the results aligned with expectations in terms of the Risk-based Approach.
