Anti-money laundering obligations in trade finance, supply chain payments, and cross-border transaction structures.
Trade-based money laundering is a recognized compliance risk, and AML obligations increasingly apply across documentary trade instruments, open-account payments, and supply chain finance structures. Regulators in multiple jurisdictions have signaled heightened scrutiny of trade finance activity.
Organizations operating cross-border payment flows and trade finance arrangements need a clear view of applicable AML frameworks and how they interact with trade documentation and counterparty relationships. Gaps in program coverage can create both regulatory and correspondent banking risk.
Common risk areas
Where organizations typically encounter exposure in this area.
