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 delivered harmonised global minimum standards 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. They also implemented the global minimum standards and local country uplifts on the global KYC platform.
A major bank with two major trading entities wished to decrease time-to-trade processing overheads for new customers and for new products for existing customers.
A crypto asset business, a subsidiary of a US Nasdaq-listed company requested assistance with the process to obtain FCA registration. Lysis provided the client with a highly experienced MLRO and compliance team who worked with senior management to implement required controls and processes. The client was successful in obtaining FCA registration.
Lysis enabled a major US crypto exchange to achieve UK FCA registration through full regulatory transformation, governance design, and compliance support.
