GCC specializes in assisting the sector of Designated Non Financial Businesses and Professions (DNFBPs) and to ensure compliance through the development and management of ongoing compliance programs and processes.
Designated Non Financial Businesses and Professions
Facing increased anti-money laundering legislation and more advanced AML/CTF procedures in credit and financial institutions, some money launderers resort to the non-financial sector to conceal their criminal revenues. What is classed as a DNFBP varies depending on jurisdiction. Usually, at least the following professions are included:
- Auditors, external accountants, and tax advisors
- Casinos and other gambling service providers
- Company service providers
- Dealers in precious metals and stones (Jewelleries)
- Lawyers
- Notaries and other independent legal professionals
- Real estate agents
AML Policy, Program Design and Implementation
A money laundering prevention program is an essential element among the measures that most Designated Non Financial Businesses and Professions (DNFBPs) must implement to protect their operations and promote trust among their clients, supervisory bodies and regulators. A successful anti-money laundering program includes the designation of a compliance officer, having internal compliance policies, procedures and controls, providing ongoing training for employees, engaging in periodic internal reviews, and Customer Due Diligence (CCD) rules.
Genesis Compliance Consultancy works with clients to design, implement, and refine comprehensive AML policies and procedures as well as establish an overarching compliance strategy and culture including business-wide training on AML compliance that reflects the latest regulatory and enforcement trends and industry best practices.
