Our philosophy

MLRO Coverage Built for Mainland and DNFBP Obligations

A dnfbp mlro faces different practical obligations than a DIFC-regulated MLRO, and our mlro provision service reflects that difference rather than applying a DIFC template to a Mainland business.

Our central bank mlro and sca mlro coverage is built around the specific obligations those regulators impose on Mainland-licensed businesses.

Real estate agencies, precious metals dealers, law firms and accountants registered as DNFBPs have MLRO obligations under Ministry of Economy rules that differ from financial-sector expectations.

Your mlro provision includes ongoing suspicious activity monitoring and STR filing through goAML, not just a one-time appointment. ✓ Named MLRO for Mainland, Central Bank, SCA or DNFBP entities ✓ STR and SAR filing through goAML ✓ Ongoing suspicious activity monitoring ✓ Ministry of Economy DNFBP compliance support ✓ Annual reporting support

Businesses seeking or holding SCA approval for financial activities need mlro provision matched to securities-specific risk factors.

Real estate brokers, precious metals dealers, auditors and law firms registered as DNFBPs face distinct dnfbp mlro obligations, often with lower transaction complexity but equally serious regulatory scrutiny.
