Lysis worked with the Group Board to structure and run a major GRC remediation programme of c.60 projects:
Lysis designed and implemented a compliance monitoring framework for a UK-regulated EMI. The aim of the framework was to ensure ongoing compliance with the Electronic Money Regulations 2011 (EMRs), including with the Money Laundering Regulations 2017 (MLRs).
Lysis reviewed the exchange’s AML/CTF framework which resulted to a successful maturity assessment review.
Following a review from the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) in 2021, and a subsequent letter from the regulator, the client had to address a number of gaps that were identified by the regulator.
