Building out Near/Off-shore CLM/AML Operations functions
Lysis has helped several major global customers set up off-shore CLM/AML teams by providing extensive training, mentoring and QC/QA services in these locations.  To-date we have trained and helped set-up near/off-shore centres covering over 2,500 personnel.

Capability Development and Quality Standardisation
While firms continue to standardise processes and controls to increase effectiveness and efficiency and invest heavily in automation, the “people” factor is not always taken into consideration for optimisation. As a result, the work output across teams and between teams, in different locations is often inconsistent and of variable quality. In addition, firms, small and large, run significant inefficiencies across FC operations which could lead to a substantial increase in the cost of compliance.

Lysis is able to combine its training and operations expertise to deliver significant quality improvement and standardisation of output across multiple teams and locations and has developed a methodology to support this.

A Capability Building Methodology developed from experience

  • Exploring Aptitude

    Lysis’ methodology uses proprietary benchmarks with a psychometric work profiling tool called “PRISM”, which has been refined to identify the profiles of high-performing Financial Crime analysts.

  • Training - Expanding and Assessing Capability

    Lysis utilises face-to-face training and eLearning to develop knowledge and an online assessment tool tailored to the specific policies, procedures, and processes of firms and provides ongoing assessments of each analyst’s knowledge and capability throughput for the duration of a project/programme.

  • Measuring and Improving Operational Effectiveness

    We measure and analyse output from QC and QA functions and use this data to define remedial and/or expansive training to improve and grow the capability of each analyst.  We have found that enhancing analyst capability can increase quality and throughput of CLM/AML teams by 20-25%.
