Risk & Compliance

Regulatory change arrives as legal text, but it has to become ownership, controls, data, reporting and evidence inside the business.

We take obligations from rule text to implemented control: the obligation register, control inventory, data lineage, reporting process and evidence pack beneath the rule. Where regimes overlap, we rationalise requirements into a single owned control inventory.

Risk frameworks only work when they change how the institution runs.

We help turn risk appetite, three lines, committees, controls and reporting into a practical operating model. That means clear decision rights, control ownership, committee governance, reporting lineage and GRC tooling that first and second line can operate.

Risk measurement is only useful when it arrives on time, reconciles to source systems and ties back to appetite.

We deliver the models, limits, data pipelines, reporting and reconciliations behind market, credit and liquidity risk, so the business and risk function can rely on the same numbers.

Surveillance programmes are judged by what they can detect and evidence.

We design, implement and tune trade and communications surveillance: market-abuse risk assessment, scenario calibration, alert tuning, governance, trade reconstruction and platform delivery. The aim is coverage the firm can demonstrate and a queue investigators can work.

Financial-crime compliance becomes expensive when the control estate fires on noise.

We help institutions improve AML, KYC, sanctions and transaction monitoring by fixing the drivers of cost and risk: entity data, customer risk rating, scenario tuning, screening calibration, case management, investigation quality and remediation evidence.

A finding closes properly when the failed control is rebuilt, tested against the original issue and evidenced to the required standard.

We support enforceable undertakings, skilled-person reviews, supervisory findings, consent orders and monitor-led remediation. We assess root cause, rebuild and test controls, manage delivery against regulatory milestones and build the evidence pack as the work progresses.

Critical services must be understood, tested and recoverable within tolerance.

We map services end to end across process, people, systems, data and suppliers. We set impact tolerances, run scenario tests, assess outsourcing and supplier concentration, and turn findings into remediation with owners, dates and board-ready evidence.
