Client On-Boarding and AML Managed Service
A Japanese wholesale and investment bank witha global footprint
The firm has just implemented the Fenergo system and needed additional BAU on-boarding resources to bolster its in-house team.
Lysis provided a number of experienced on-shore Client Outreach and CLM/AML analysts, QCs and team leadership to supplement the BAU team. This has enabled the bank to meet its regulatory obligations and systems implementation targets. The Lysis team has also been involved in managing and mentoring bank staff and training bank BAU resources.
