Are Your Financial Crime Sanctions Policies & Standards Up To Date?

Bribery, corruption, and the evasion of financial sanctions pose a serious risk to national security, economic prosperity, and international reputation. This month the FCA is putting more pressure on firms and individuals to report sanction evasions or weaknesses in sanction controls, that relate to any firm or person listed on the FCA registers or to a UK listed security. This could be information about:

  • – Any suggestion that firms have poor sanctions controls.
  • – Suspected breaches of the sanctions regime.
  • – Actual breaches of the sanctions regime.
  • – Any method you believe is used by firms or individuals to breach the sanctions regime.

We can ensure your Financial Crime Sanctions policies and standards are fit for purpose, and your firm and employees are adhering to legislative, regulatory obligations and industry best practice.
