360o Compliance

AML Search has been at the forefront of electronic AML Customer Due Diligence (CDD) for over 10 years, our user-friendly, robust platform has helped over 8,000 firms and 18,000 users reduce the time and cost of carrying out compliant CDD for over 1.6 million clients.

In June 2017 we released AML Search v4, which builds upon AML Search v2's robust data analytics to include fully automated Risk Assessments, Compliance Reporting, documentary evidence management, on-going monitoring and automated record keeping.

AML Search v4 represents a leap forwards in the streamlining and simplifying of a firms CDD procedures which dramatically reduces both the time and cost of Anti-Money Laundering regulatory compliance.

Risk Assessments

Regulations make it mandatory for firms to carry out Risk Assessments on their Clients as a part of their Client Due Diligence, we recognise that this is both a time consuming and expensive process that requires specialist training.

AML Search v4 automates Customer Due Diligence Risk Assessments to enable your users to simply and quickly enter Client data, include documentary evidence and carry out a Simplified or Enhanced Due Diligence Risk Assessment in a few minutes.

Our unique automated Risk Assessments mean that you no longer have to manually risk assess your clients, dramatically reducing the time, risk and cost of demonstrating your compliance.
