Our services:

• Licensing
  Licensing is at the very beginning of a financial services business. Our service starts from assisting our clients in understanding the licensing criteria pertinent to their intended activities through to assistance in the application process.
   

• Advisory   
  Our advisory services encompass a range of capabilities, structured to support our clients’ business needs. Our approach is to assist our clients in exploring a range of solutions and implementation, either specific to an operational area or enterprise-wide.
   

• Compliance 
  Given the increasingly granular application of financial regulations, many financial firms are obligated with significant responsibilities in the areas of client on-boarding & monitoring, and reporting to the authorities. Our compliance resource support enables financial firms to access competent and reliable resources with flexibility and cost-effectiveness. We also help clients to gain an independent assessment of the compliance deficiencies.
   

• Training
  Effective training is no longer an optional item, often it is part of the requirement to meet professional qualifications as well as to comply with regulations. Our training services are customised to meet our clients’ specific needs.
   

• AML/CFT
  Anti-Money Laundering and Countering the Financing of Terrorism (AML/CFT) are initiatives that have transcended geographical boundaries. Global bodies such as the Financial Action Task Force, and United Nations have actively garnered international cooperation to promulgate local-level legislation to combat money laundering, terrorism and proliferation financing. We aim to ensure that our clients are fully informed of the latest regulations and give effect to the substantial AML/CFT obligations of a financial firm.

  Technology is fundamental to financial services. We partner with a strong panel of reputable technologyplayers, to provide our clients with technology solutions that can enhance their GRC functions.
