03 · KYC / AML

Client files that stand up to review.

Onboarding, enhanced due diligence, beneficial owners: we reinforce your KYC teams with the rigour expected in a large bank, in French, Dutch or English.

Day rate, full-time or part-time, reinforcing your compliance team. On site in Belgium or remote.

Client file and identity documents examined with a magnifying glass on a desk

Who it is for

Complete client files, a reasoned risk assessment, reviews without surprises.

Banks, credit institutions, fintechs and entities subject to anti-money laundering law.

An incomplete KYC file does not show right away. It surfaces during a periodic review, a quality control or an inspection, often just when there is no time left to rework it.

We work on assignment in large Belgian banks: onboarding reviews, risk profiling, enhanced due diligence on corporate clients, beneficial ownership analysis and sanctions screening.
