Anti-money Laundering

Anti-money laundering and counter-terrorist financing regulations are a key part of the fight against financial crime. We advise on all aspects of AML compliance — from drafting internal policies and procedures to designing training programs to customer due diligence.

When money laundering is suspected, we advise you on your reporting requirements, including whether payments can be made and how to manage the risk of "tipping off" a customer.

We also handle major cross-border AML investigations, and regularly deal with regulators and law enforcement. We also advise clients like you on related civil claims by affected customers or potential victims.
