Irish Payment Services Provider
Our client had a substantial backlog of transaction alerts. They were concerned that these included a number of true positives that therefore indicated suspicious activity and required reporting.
Lysis provided a team of Compliance SMEs to review the backlog of alerts, discount those that were not suspicious and raise Suspicious Transaction Reports to the country's Financial Intelligence Unit (FIU) for those that were suspicious.
Our client was applying for Payment Services permissions from the Central Bank of Ireland and required support in defining and documenting the Governance and Compliance framework.
Although the client is based in the US, they have European subsidiaries which include the UK and therefore required Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) registration. In order to obtain registration as a crypto asset firm in the U.K. they had to comply with specific FCA requirements.
An international payment company with offices in major European hubs outsourced KYC service provision was unsatisfactory. A significantly enhanced and more effective capability was developed by Lysis.
