Risk & Compliance

Anti-Money Laundering

Strengthen anti-money laundering (“AML”) risk management and compliance and respond effectively to investigations with independent AML guidance and end-to-end investigative support.

Organizations face rising scrutiny in the global fight against money laundering and terrorist financing. As an institution’s business and compliance expectations evolve, they must strengthen programs or be prepared to respond to investigations, consent orders and other high-stakes events.

Clients across industries rely on us to assess and remediate AML programs; strengthen governance and controls; validate transaction-monitoring systems; and conduct model validations, transaction lookbacks and account reviews related to potential wrongdoing.

Our teams bring decades of experience across AML, financial fraud, sanctions and anti-corruption matters. We have a cross-disciplinary team made up of former regulators, law enforcement personnel, data scientists, in-house compliance officers and seasoned consultants. We understand evolving laws and regulatory expectations and apply established methodologies to evaluate and enhance compliance frameworks.

When investigations occur, we combine investigative expertise with technology, data analytics, digital forensics and e-discovery to identify suspicious activity, quickly find facts, protect sensitive materials and improve efficiency. We also serve as independent monitors and provide expert witness testimony when required.
