Overview

Regulated and supervised businesses need a risk-based framework for anti-money laundering, customer due diligence, beneficial ownership and sanctions compliance that reflects their actual customers, products and geographic exposure.

Coutts Consultants treats uk aml, kyc & sanctions compliance framework as a defined professional engagement rather than a generic add-on.

We begin by understanding the client's commercial objective and reviewing business-wide risk assessment, CDD, EDD, PEPs, sanctions, beneficial ownership, policies, records, training and reporting. We then assemble the appropriate information, coordinate the filing, application or specialist work, and manage queries through to a clear completion point.

Where the work involves a reserved legal activity, regulated advice, audit, immigration advice or another protected professional function, execution is undertaken by an appropriately qualified or authorised UK professional. Any approval, registration, licence, bank account or regulatory permission remains subject to the decision of the relevant authority or provider.
