Point Risk Model Created

Wholesale Banking - Hosted KYC

Challenge: Nexus AML was engaged by an established UK mortgage lender to assess the risk within a historic client database that lacked sufficient KYC information. The client’s priority was to screen its historical customer population, develop a more comprehensive view of risk and create a risk assessment model that would meet regulatory requirements and strengthen its overall AML controls.

This enableda large amount of the population to be handled solely using data, with targeted reviews supportingcompletion of the remaining cases. Enhanced due diligence was conducted on high-risk customers, whileNexus AML also developed a new AML policy and framework, managed the secure transfer and storage ofdata, and provided recommendations to strengthen the client’s wider policy and control environment. Thefull target population was remediated within eight weeks.​

Results: The project gave the client a clearer and more consistent understanding of risk across its historic customer population while addressing gaps in its existing KYC information.
