Resources & Toolkits

Practical tools you can adapt tomorrow

Checklists, templates and frameworks built from how financial-crime work gets done, not from how it is described in a policy document.

Toolkits

Available to subscribers

Each toolkit is designed to be adapted rather than adopted wholesale. Your risk assessment, your customers, your regulator. These give you the structure and the questions.

Customer Risk Assessment Framework

A scoring structure covering customer type, geography, product, channel and delivery risk, with the rationale prompts that make each score defensible in an audit.

SAR Quality Checklist

The cold-read test, structure prompts and the common narrative failures, plus a separate section on what a DAML request must establish that a SAR does not.

EDD Trigger & Escalation Map

When enhanced due diligence is required, what it should actually add, who signs it off, and how to evidence source of wealth without an endless document request.

Sanctions Screening Review Template

List coverage, matching thresholds, ownership and control assessment, alert handling and the evidence trail a supervisor will ask for first.

Transaction Monitoring Tuning Log

A structure for recording threshold changes, the rationale behind them, the testing performed and the outcome. It is the document most firms wish they had started earlier.

Financial Crime Onboarding Pack for New Analysts

A structured first-90-days guide: the terminology, the three lines of defence, how an alert becomes a report, and the questions worth asking early.
