Anti-Money Laundering

Financial institutions, including banks, payment institutions, insurance companies, and investment firms, are governed by the Act on Measures against Money Laundering and Terrorist Financing, along with related regulations. These regulations mandate that companies implement various measures to identify potential involvement of their customers in money laundering or terrorist financing activities.

To effectively comply with these regulations, companies must understand their own risk profiles, establish suitable procedures, and ensure these are followed in practice. Our firm possesses extensive expertise in anti-money laundering. Many of our lawyers have gained valuable experience from working with relevant public authorities, including conducting on-site inspections and engaging with both national and international regulatory developments.

The firm are always fast to respond and work efficiently and will always go that extra mile to meet the client’s specific needs.
