​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​Uniting Trade-Based Money Laundering Compliance With Your Core AML Program

As of today, trade-finance is a top three money laundering methodology globally. Recent enforcement actions have links to AML control failings where trade-based money laundering (TBML) deficiencies had a prominent role.

Due to manual processes and the high volume of paperwork entailed, TBML has become increasingly difficult to monitor. Identifying irregularities is especially challenging when volumes of trade are large and require every single shipment to be examined, all while refraining from disrupting the flow of daily business.

Front-office teams, typically at regional levels, are often performing the AML checks without the full view of customer, counterparties and activity risk from the core AML and sanctions teams.
