AML & Financial Crime

Practice: Finance & Risk · Type: Regulation

Anti-money-laundering (AML) and financial-crime frameworks require firms to manage the risk of money laundering, terrorist financing, sanctions breaches and fraud, under regimes such as the UK MLRs and FATF recommendations. Celeredge assesses these controls against regulatory expectations.

Benefits​

  • Scored on AML & Financial Crime's own scale — not a generic rubric.
  • Every score is traceable to the client's own evidence — policies, reports and data.
  • Gaps ranked by severity, ready to become the plan.
  • A board-ready slide deck and a detailed report, generated automatically.
  • Re-runnable as controls are remediated and the risk assessment refreshes.

When to use it​

  • To assess anti-money-laundering and financial-crime controls against regulatory expectations.
  • When a firm must evidence its AML control framework to a regulator or auditor.
  • To baseline controls against the UK MLRs and FATF recommendations.
  • To identify gaps across money-laundering, terrorist-financing, sanctions and fraud risk.

Expected output​

Celeredge produces per-dimension maturity scores on AML & Financial Crime's own scale.

FAQ​

What is AML & Financial Crime?​

Anti-money-laundering (AML) and financial-crime frameworks require firms to manage the risk of money laundering, terrorist financing, sanctions breaches and fraud, under regimes such as the UK MLRs and FATF recommendations.

What does a Celeredge AML & Financial Crime assessment deliver?​

An evidence-based readiness assessment scored on the framework's own scale, with gaps ranked by severity and an auto-generated, board-ready slide deck and detailed report — every score traceable to the evidence behind it.

How does the assessment work?​

Clients upload their own evidence — policies, reports and data. An AI interviewer asks targeted follow-ups to fill anything missing, the platform scores against the framework, ranks the gaps, and generates the deliverables.
