Compliance Ireland is a leading expert in Financial Crime issues. Financial Crime means, broadly, anti-money laundering (AML), counter-financing terrorism (CFT), market abuse (e.g. insider dealing) and other financial fraud. We advise credit institutions, insurers and others (e.g. solicitors and accountants) on Financial Crime. We also present on Financial Crime strategies to governments. The types of firms and business we provide our services to are below.

Because businesses operate on a global basis, so do we. We provide (anti) Financial Crime services in Ireland and, through our sister companies, across the EU, Middle-East, South Africa and Australia. Our services extend to giving you advice on choosing the right selection of Financial Crime software from the hundreds of offerings in the market.

We have established a dedicated website on AML/CFT issues for the Irish market at www.antimoneylaundering.ie. On this website we provide numerous AML/CFT Resources, Market Abuse Resources and Compliance Documents. Our archive of Newsletters and Hot Topics provide another useful resource. Internationally we are affiliated www.antimoneylaundering.com.au and www.moneylaundering.com.au.
