The Challenge

Our client wished to gain an ACPR Payment Institution license in France and asked for Lysis' assistance to prepare all the documents and for general support during the application process.

The Solution

Lysis worked with the firm's compliance department to adapt the UK governance and compliance framework to be suitable for the ACPR. License acquired, we then worked with our client to implement and embed the new framework as they started operations in France.
