A global bank following a substantial cross-border banking merger.
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.
Lysis developed of harmonised global minimum standard and local country uplift KYC policies and procedures to meet the requirements of the FSA, a European National Bank, the Federal Reserve, and the local regulators in each of 40 core locations worldwide. This also included the implementation of the global minimum standards and local country uplifts on the global KYC platform. Lysis also coordinated the activities required to achieve the programme’s objectives across Legal, Compliance, Operations and IT and provided the content and thought leadership and the drafting of a number of key documents.
