Why us?
Anti-financial crime is all we do. With decades of global execution experience, we bring unparalleled expertise, including key lessons from helping global organisations remediate failed projects.
What’s holding businesses back? It’s a combination of poorly designed AFC programs, lack of access to data due to disengaged clients, siloed due diligence technology, and, most critically, the lack of access to skilled professionals with verifiable expertise.

People everywhere are seeking out businesses that do good and as people start to connect the dots between financial crime and the underlying crimes it fuels, they are demanding and will increasingly demand action. How the industry acts in the fight against financial crime is critical in this regard. Trust is earned and earns a premium.
Crime and commerce evolve continuously and so must our response.
Who is responsible for fighting financial crime?
Everyone
Who is paying a premium for little positive impact?
Everyone
Poor data availability and quality
An effective program to fight financial crime relies on data but businesses are faced with both the lack of availability and poor quality data. Whilst an entire industry of data providers and aggregators have emerged to serve businesses who need data, the true owner of the data i.e., the client remains disengaged. Lack of and poor quality data also impacts ROI, client experience and effectiveness.
Siloed due diligence technology
Siloed due diligence technology forces businesses to rely on multiple platforms, limiting a 360-degree client view and creating inefficiencies. Teams working on separate systems increase costs, reduce flexibility, and risk missed financial crime, leading to ineffective programs.
Lack of access to skilled professionals
Unlike how we address tax and accounting challenges, our fight against financial crime lacks the benefit of skilled professionals with verifiable skills. Deploying such professionals fosters trust, improves efficiency, reduces risks, and strengthens anti-financial crime programs.”
