A significant UK and US corporate bank
The bank had grown rapidly and an audit in late 2020 raised questions about the quality of the firm’s AML capabilities and customer files.
Lysis worked with the bank’s AML compliance and AML operations team to provide the following services:

A new to market crypto asset business domiciled in Ireland received a regulatory requirement from the Central Bank of Ireland to design and embed a financial crime, AML/CTF, governance framework.

A listed UK-Based subprime lender offering lower value short term loans needed to enhance, redesign, and implement a new FC framework. Lysis provided the client with a understanding of risks, practical advice on risk mitigation, & robust policies.

A crypto asset custodian based in the U.K. with global reach approached Lysis with the request to assist them with the process to obtain registration from the FCA which would enable them to operate in the UK market as a crypto asset business. Due to the holding company’s strong global footprint, part of the FCA requirements for registration included the need for a UK based money laundering reporting officer (MLRO).
