Irish designated persons need a risk-based anti-money-laundering framework proportionate to their customers, services, delivery channels and geographic exposure.
The framework should connect business risk assessment, customer due diligence and ongoing monitoring. Coutts Consultants coordinates irish aml, kyc & sanctions compliance framework as a defined Irish professional service.
The engagement begins with the client's objective and a service-specific review of business-wide risk assessment, CDD, EDD, PEPs, sanctions, beneficial ownership, policies, monitoring, records, training and suspicious-transaction escalation. We then establish the appropriate route, assemble the required information and coordinate the filing, application or professional work with the relevant Irish authority, institution or specialist. Where Irish law reserves the work to a solicitor, tax adviser, auditor, immigration practitioner or other regulated professional, that work is undertaken by an appropriately qualified provider.
Registrations, licences, permits, banking and regulatory approvals remain subject to the decision of the relevant authority or institution.
