Which solution is right for you?

FINMA, SRO or staffing – we know your regulatory framework inside out.

FINMA

FINMA-regulated banks

As a bank in FINMA categories 1 to 5, you are directly subject to the CDB 20 – with its own due diligence articles that go beyond the general AMLA requirements. Our bank version covers all six mandatory modules including bank-specific CDB 20 references, from identifying the contracting party to digital assets. Audit trail and FINMA audit report are generated automatically.

Solution for FINMA-regulated firms

SRO

SRO-regulated financial intermediaries

Independent asset managers, trust companies and family offices under VQF, VSV or ASG have the same statutory training obligation as banks – but usually without an in-house compliance department to build a training programme. Our SRO version is tailored precisely to the AMLA, the AMLO-FINMA and the requirements of your supervisory organisation.

Solution for SRO-regulated intermediaries

Staffing

Staffing & consulting firms

You place or second compliance staff and consultants with SRO- and FINMA-regulated clients, need an onboarding programme or want to ensure the quality of your consultants – with a solution that grows with your headcount instead of adding fixed costs. No base fee, no minimum volume: you pay per deployed employee, billed by group.
