Starting a regulated business or scaling an existing one? We design, document and implement end-to-end AML programmes that satisfy regulators — and actually work in practice.
A compliant AML programme is not just a policy document — it is a living framework that covers governance, risk assessment, customer due diligence, transaction monitoring, and staff training. We design programmes that are proportionate to your business model and built to withstand regulatory scrutiny.
Whether you are building from scratch or remediating an existing framework, we scope each engagement individually. Everything is fixed-fee and agreed in writing before any work begins.
Discovery & scoping
We review your business model, products, customer base and regulatory obligations. We identify gaps in any existing controls and scope the work required.
Risk assessment
We produce your Business-Wide Risk Assessment — the foundation of the entire framework — identifying your inherent risks and documenting your control environment.
Framework design & documentation
We draft and deliver every policy, procedure and framework document — written in plain language, practical to implement, and aligned to your regulatory obligations.
Review, sign-off & training
We walk through every document with you, incorporate feedback, and deliver staff training so your team can operate the programme confidently from day one.
Ongoing support (optional)
Regulations change. We offer retained advisory support to keep your programme current — including annual BWRA updates, regulatory change monitoring, and MLRO support.
FCA-registered or seeking registration — we build the AML framework that satisfies UK MLR requirements and FATF expectations for virtual asset service providers.
FCA-authorised payment firms, e-money institutions, and remittance businesses — proportionate AML programmes for regulated payment services.
Pre-authorisation or post-authorisation — we help fintech businesses build the compliance infrastructure needed to obtain and retain FCA authorisation.
Overseas firms establishing UK operations — we design UK-compliant AML frameworks that align with your global programme while satisfying local regulatory expectations.
There is a fundamental difference between a template AML policy bought online and a framework designed by someone who has actually run these programmes inside major financial institutions.
Our founder spent over a decade managing AML operations at KPMG, Deloitte, Bank of New York and Eversheds Sutherland. Every programme we build reflects that experience — practical, regulator-ready, and built to last.
