Who We Serve

International Traders

For companies operating in the global import/export sector, every new partnership carries a hidden weight of responsibility. Whether you are sourcing raw materials from emerging markets or exporting finished goods to high-growth regions, the complexity of international trade laws makes “due diligence” a necessity, not an option.

  • Geopolitical & Sanction Risk Mitigation: With global sanction lists (OFAC, EU, UN) changing daily, we ensure that your partners haven’t recently been flagged for trade restrictions or linked to conflict zones.
  • Dual-Use Goods & TBML Monitoring: Protect your business from being inadvertently involved in Trade-Based Money Laundering (TBML). We audit the logic of trade flows to ensure your transactions remain above board.
  • Ownership & Control Discovery: We peel back the layers of offshore holdings and shell companies often found in international trade, revealing the Ultimate Beneficial Owners (UBO) to ensure you aren’t dealing with “proxy” entities for sanctioned individuals.
  • Physical Reality Audit: In international trade, “ghost companies” are a real threat. We verify registration addresses against physical operational logic to ensure your partner actually exists.

SME+ & MID-Market Compliance

Companies with a turnover between €1M and €10M are the primary targets of modern AML directives. You are large enough to be a target for financial crime and regulatory audits, yet often lack the €100k+ budget required for a dedicated in-house compliance department or expensive enterprise software licenses.

  • The ‘External Compliance Officer’ Model: We bridge the gap by providing the same level of intelligence used by multinational banks, but on a flexible, per-report basis that fits your budget.
  • Professionalizing the Finance Department: Empower your CFO or Controller with documented proof of due diligence. No more manual Google searches; get a standardized, professional PDF for every new client or supplier.
  • Scalable Risk Management: As your business grows, your risks multiply. Our system scales with you, allowing you to run 5 or 500 checks per month with the same 48-hour turnaround and consistency.
  • 6AMLD & Wwft Readiness: Stay ahead of evolving European directives. Our reporting structure is built to meet the specific “Customer Due Diligence” (CDD) requirements that auditors look for during inspections.

Business Under Banking Scrutiny

Major financial institutions are under immense pressure from the ECB to monitor their clients’ “Know Your Customer” records. If your company cannot provide immediate, professional proof of due diligence for your international partners, you risk account freezes, blocked transactions, or even full termination of your banking services.

  • Audit-Ready ‘Defense Dossiers’: Our reports are formatted specifically to satisfy banking compliance officers. When the bank asks “who are you doing business with?”, you can simply hand over our professional audit.
  • Proactive Risk Identification: Don’t wait for a transaction to be blocked to investigate a partner. By running a check at the onboarding stage, you identify “red flags” (PEP, Adverse Media, Sanctions) before they trigger a bank alert.
  • Maintenance of Trust: Consistent use of professional KYC services demonstrates to your bank that your company takes AML/CTF (Counter-Terrorism Financing) seriously, significantly reducing the likelihood of being flagged for a deep-dive audit.
  • Transaction Friction Reduction: Verified UBO data and clear activity audits help speed up international wire transfers by providing the bank with the clarity they need to approve high-value payments.

Real World Use Cases Compliance In Action

How our clients use our reports to solve real-world business challenges.

Scenario A: Onboarding a New Supplier in Vietnam

  • Challenge: The supplier provides official papers, but the owner’s name seems familiar.
  • Our Solution: We discovered the owner was a close associate of a Politically Exposed Person (PEP) and flagged the risk before a €200k down payment was made.

Scenario B: Bank Inquiry on a Middle Eastern Customer.

  • Challenge: A Dutch bank blocked a €50k incoming payment until “full ownership transparency” was provided.
  • Our Solution: Within 48 hours, we mapped the ownership structure back to the UBO, provided the report, and the bank released the funds immediately.

Scenario C: Annual Audit for an Export Manufacturer.

  • Challenge: Auditors requested proof of due diligence for the top 20 international distributors.
  • Our Solution: We provided a batch of 20 Comprehensive Reports, allowing the company to pass their regulatory audit with zero findings.
