Focus on Financial Crime Compliance Obligations Management

In a world of ever-increasing regulation and heightened regulatory scrutiny, demonstrating that a financial institution is working diligently to meet its legal and regulatory Financial Crime Compliance (FCC) obligations has become a commercial and social imperative.

Failing to meet FCC obligations significantly increases your organisation’s exposure to regulatory enforcement action, along with the cost of the associated fine, potential reputational damage, and impact to investor confidence.

Despite this risk exposure, many financial institutions do not maintain a comprehensive obligations register or maintain in manual or sub-optimal solution that adds complexity and unnecessary costs, and all too-often does not provide compliance teams with the assurance they need.

Questions For Financial Institutions

  • Could you demonstrate to the regulator how your existing Policy Framework across all policies and standards meets applicable laws, regulations and guidance with full traceability?

  • How do you stay on top of every regulatory update and have you faced a situation where you have had limited time to implement new obligations due to late identification?

  • Are you able to immediately identify which Policy Framework documents are impacted by new regulations and implement the required changes?

  • How do you integrate disparate obligations management processes easily and cost-effectively?

  • How much are you currently spending on resources to manage obligations and conduct horizon scanning? In this cost conscious environment could you benefit from demonstrating a cost reduction to Senior Management?

  • As an accountable individual, are you concerned about your current approach to obligations management? Might you miss something critical and how do you address this concern?
