A global inter-dealer broker
Following a visit from the regulator the firm was put under a Section 166 order due to concerns across their Governance Risk and Compliance capabilities
Lysis worked with the Group Board to structure and run a major GRC remediation programme of c.60 projects:
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.
A UK-crypto asset subsidiary of a Nasdaq-listed firm in the U.S. has a requirement to review their anti-money laundering (AML) policy framework and idetify possible gaps in line with FCA requirements.
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.
