FC3

FC ³ is our new invitation-only product for the financial crime compliance community.

As an FC ³ member you’ll access free monthly partner-level support, helping you navigate the full spectrum of AML queries and issues, and keeping you ahead of regulatory trends and changes.

You’ll benefit from an hour with us each month, in person or virtually, for anything you’d like to discuss. You can pick from any of the following, or something else that’s on your mind:

• BAU support with day-to-day AML compliance issues
• talking through an internal or external SAR or TM query
• a discussion about legislative or policy developments e.g. the new Failure to Prevent Fraud offences
• a run-through of the latest enforcement and regulatory activity
• how to prepare for an FCA AML visit or Skilled Person review
• a briefing on hot topics and benchmarking

We’re also offering our initial clients the following advisory assistance:

• a high-level review of your firm-wide risk assessment including a note on benchmarking against peer-firm risk assessment arrangements
• support with designing requirements for your independent audit
• two hours’ free training on financial crime topics of your choice

You will gain automatic membership of our Eversheds Sutherland and Konexo MLRO Forum which meets quarterly, with a membership of more than 125 MLROs and Compliance Heads from a diverse range of financial institutions including overseas banks, challenger banks, payment institutions and fintechs.

You’ll have access to training, seminars and podcasts, and regular thought leadership articles from our experienced team, as well as our quarterly financial crime horizon scanner. You’re welcome to bring team members along to our meetings too.

We know how time-consuming it can be to instruct external counsel for ad hoc queries. FC ³ cuts down on the admin around external instructions and just allows you to pick up the phone for a chat. We see FC ³ an investment in you and your team and an opportunity to get to know more about your firm, the business you do and the challenges you face in the AML space – and how we can help.
