AML, CTF and Sanctions Risk Review for a UK Public Sector Body

United Kingdom public sector body | Risk & regulation | Public sector

The challenge: A United Kingdom public sector body responsible for administering guarantee products to commercial financial institutions and blended lending programmes required an independent review of its Anti-Money Laundering, Counter Terrorist Financing and sanctions risks and overall control environment.

What New Link Consulting did: New Link Consulting deployed an expert team to conduct a documentation review and stakeholder interviews across the organisation. The team performed an Anti-Money Laundering, Counter Terrorist Financing and sanctions risk assessment for each programme administered by the body and produced an independent report with actionable recommendations to strengthen the control environment.

The outcome: An independent report detailing all work undertaken, with clear recommendations to improve the control environment across Anti-Money Laundering, Counter Terrorist Financing and sanctions-related risks across the organisation's guarantee and lending programmes.
