Anti-Money Laundering
Banks, payment institutions, insurance companies, investment firms, etc. are covered by the Act on Measures against Money Laundering and Terrorist Financing and associated regulations. This means that the companies are obliged to implement a number of measures to detect whether their customers are involved in money laundering or terrorist financing. Effective compliance with the regulations requires companies to have an understanding of their own risk, establish appropriate procedures and ensure that these are complied with in practice.
We have extensive expertise in anti-money laundering. Several of our lawyers have work experience from relevant public authorities. This includes experience from on-site inspections, as well as national and international regulatory developments in the field.
We assist reporting entities in conducting risk assessments, establishing and maintaining routines, as well as interpretation and practical compliance with the regulations. In addition, we advise companies on, among other things, conducting on-site inspections, handling risk customers in practice and assessing reporting obligations.
Issues related to compliance with money laundering regulations often touch on areas such as Data Protection, Investigation and Compliance, and Corporate Criminal Liability. In addition, anti-money laundering has become an important part of M&A processes within Banking and Finance. Our lawyers collaborate across disciplines to ensure that our clients’ needs are met in the best possible way.
