Prevent financial crime with a stronger decision chain.
FCRisk helps regulated organisations and technology providers strengthen Financial Crime risk outcomes across customer risk, KYC, UBO and PEP review, transaction monitoring, investigations, QA, data, technology, AI and senior assurance.
Commercially clear routes to support.
FCRisk is not limited to one consulting model. Engagements can be structured around the outcome, the intensity of support required and the client’s governance context.
Focused Advisory Mandate
A defined diagnostic, design, remediation or assurance assignment with clear scope, outputs and decision points.
Fractional Senior Advisory
Regular senior support to a Financial Crime, Compliance, Data, Technology or Transformation leader without requiring a full-time appointment.
Retained Advisory
Ongoing access for independent challenge, decision support, programme assurance and emerging Financial Crime issues.
Programme / Workstream Leadership
Hands-on leadership of a defined transformation, remediation or specialist workstream where direct delivery responsibility is appropriate.
Two primary client audiences.
The proposition is intentionally designed to support both sides of important Financial Crime decisions: the regulated institution facing the problem and the provider needing to prove it can credibly help solve it.
Banks, payment firms, fintechs and other regulated institutions
Support across Financial Crime transformation, remediation, control architecture, customer-risk/KYC/UBO/PEP design, investigations, assurance, data and technology dependencies.

Financial Crime data, analytics, technology and AI providers
Independent bank-side perspective on whether a proposition is credible, implementable and defensible inside a regulated client environment.
- Proposition and bank-readiness review
- Data and control dependency mapping
- Operating-model and buyer-expectation challenge
- Implementation readiness and assurance support
A visual system built around real Financial Crime work.
These original diagrams make the advisory logic tangible. They support the website, capability decks, proposals and insight pieces without reducing the proposition to generic stock imagery.
“Financial Crime controls often fail not because nothing exists, but because the chain between customer understanding, monitoring, investigation, challenge and decision is not fully joined up.”
FCRisk is designed around that practical reality.AI can improve defence — and increase threat velocity.
The refreshed proposition now makes this explicit: AI matters on both sides of the problem. It can improve onboarding, screening, monitoring, investigation and prioritisation, while also enabling deepfakes, synthetic identities, crypto abuse and faster fraud typology change.

The service set reflects both advisory and hands-on delivery experience, including multi-location remediation, customer-risk review, UBO analysis, PEP treatment, TM, investigation flows, QA, senior escalation design and evaluation of AML controls for cryptocurrencies and related providers.
Financial Crime Diagnostics & Control Effectiveness
Evidence-led assessment of control architecture, operating model, governance, data and technology — including deeper review of whether material controls are designed, operating and sufficiently evidenced.

Target-state design, mobilisation, workstream definition, governance and senior assurance through delivery and closure.
Customer Risk, KYC, UBO & PEP
Customer review architecture, UBO logic, domestic and international PEP treatment, risk assessment and ongoing due diligence.
Transaction Monitoring
Detection strategy, coverage, scenario thinking, alert quality, investigation model, QA gates and escalation discipline.
Investigations, QA & Escalation
Case review, first-line investigation, secondary challenge, assurance and governance of onward escalation.
Data, Technology, AI & Crypto
Data dependencies, control evidence, bank-readiness, AI governance and AML questions linked to crypto and digital-asset activity.
Correspondent Banking remediation is a strong proof point.
Relevant experience includes organising and leading a multi-location Correspondent Banking remediation covering customer review from core source-system data, UBO analysis, refreshed risk assessment based on 40+ data points, alert generation, QA, first-stage investigation review, second-stage challenge and escalation of residual cases to the MLRO. Delivery teams were organised across the Netherlands, Slovakia, Poland and Manila, coordinated from London.
Experience statements on FCRisk are intended as truthful capability evidence and not as client endorsements.
FCRisk works best as part of a coherent advisory architecture.
Where a mandate expands beyond specialist Financial Crime scope, FCRisk can connect naturally to broader transformation and deeper data-integrity propositions.
