KYC Remediation Services
Respective File Reviews for Law Firms
At Alexander Christian, we undertake KYC remediation services tailored for regulated law firms. Unlike KYC analyst support — which assists with real-time onboarding and checks — remediation is a looking back process, identifying gaps and applying current mitigation. In addition remediation can help your to spot trends in your pre-onboarding, onboarding and ongoing monitoring that need you to address.
