What financial service firms does ABM Global Compliance support?

We assist firms in banking, payments, electronic money, capital markets, and other financial-services sectors with compliance, regulatory authorisation, AML/CTF, risk management, governance, and ongoing compliance support.

Do you help with regulatory licensing and authorisation?

Yes. We provide support with preparing applications, understanding requirements, capital, governance, policies, and liaising with regulators for financial services licensing.

What AML/CTF obligations do financial service firms need to meet?

They need to have customer due diligence (KYC/KYB), transaction monitoring, reporting of suspicious transactions, sanctions screening, risk assessment, record keeping, staff training, and internal oversight.

How often should financial service firms review and update their compliance frameworks?

At minimum annually, or sooner if there are regulatory changes, internal incidents, or business model changes that affect risk or operations.

What is regulatory reporting and how can you help?

Regulatory reporting includes periodic or ad-hoc filings required by regulators. We help firms prepare, review, submit these reports accurately and on time, and advise on new reporting requirements.

Why are governance & internal controls important in financial services?

Good governance ensures accountability, oversight, risk awareness, and helps maintain regulatory compliance. Internal controls help prevent errors, fraud, non-compliance, and protect the firm and its customers.
