In partnership with BankID, Signicat is now offering a new solution for meeting Norwegian AML (Anti Money Laundering) regulations.
Companies that are required to comply with the Anti-Money Laundering regulations have increased requirements around the data they collect and verify from customers. The new law that recently took effect has added a number of new elements to Norway’s AML requirements. These include:
- The inclusion of PEP and RCA check requirements.
- Increased requirements around process documentation, risk assessment / risk profiles and customer controls.
- New sectors governed under the AML regulation (such as Gaming and Virtual Currencies).
