AML Audit / Preparation and Remediation for Regulatory Inspections
Canopy Consulting can perform the required audits and review the overall AML programme subject to the AML requirements. The requisite audits will assess the effectiveness of the comprehensive AML/CFT programme and related controls, identify gaps, and escalate to senior management as required.
AML and CTF Training
In compliance with the Cayman Islands AML Regime’s training requirements, Canopy Consulting offers a tailored and verifiable solution. This training can be provided to appropriate staff and senior management that are required to have AML training on an annual basis.
Review / Preparation of AML Policies and Procedures
As regulatory demands increase, in addition to implementing adequate AML policies and procedures that meet the AML requirements, adequate CTF/PF and sanction criteria must also be implemented into the AML programme, as these areas have become a significant risk factor for clients to consider.
