Post-merger, the bank had two separate Anti-Money Laundering (AML) / Know Your Client (KYC) firms, policies, and IT infrastructures. These needed to be harmonised as part of bank integration. Also, post-integration, a streamlined, efficient, and common KYC policy was required, and this had to be implemented across 40 core locations globally, taking into account local requirements and those of three leading regulators.
