Gaming Compliance
An Online Gaming Licensing Authority
Our client was setting up a new online gaming licensing authority and sought a partner to advise on regulatory and compliance requirements and develop its Governance and Compliance Framework.
Lysis worked with our client to define an appropriate risk management approach for the potential licensees and then developed and implemented a Governance and Compliance Framework to deliver the risk model. We also provided input to new governing legislation that set up the authority and drafted the operating code of conduct.
Our client wished to outsource the Client On-Boarding and AML Operations for its merchant acquiring business in Europe, replacing their current major global outsourcing partner.
Although the client is based in the US, they have European subsidiaries which include the UK and therefore required Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) registration. In order to obtain registration as a crypto asset firm in the U.K. they had to comply with specific FCA requirements.
Our client was applying for Payment Services permissions from the Central Bank of Ireland and required support in defining and documenting the Governance and Compliance framework.
