Family office rolls out an anti-money laundering system in 60 days and passes an inspection

Family office with diversified investments · Financial services / Investment · Spain

The challenge

The family office needed to strengthen its compliance framework to meet anti-money laundering (AML) rules. That meant implementing a system to automate due diligence on counterparties while also training the team in the new procedures.

What we did

  • With AML-accredited technical auditors from our network, we audited the existing procedures.
  • We selected and implemented a RegTech platform from one of our partners, automating know-your-customer (KYC) checks and transaction monitoring.
  • We drafted the compliance manual, and lawyers from our network validated the framework as a whole.

The outcome

  • AML system implemented and operational in 60 days.
  • 80% of due diligence processes automated, reducing the risk of human error.
  • With the new compliance framework in place, the family office subsequently passed a regulatory inspection.
