Financial Crime & Sanctions
Strengthening financial crime controls across customers, transactions, products and jurisdictions. Supportix Global helps regulated entities build programs that satisfy regulators and operate reliably in practice.
Services We Provide
Our Financial Crime & Sanctions practice is organized around three core capabilities. Each addresses a distinct part of the regulatory landscape while operating as part of a single, coordinated program.
RPAA & PSP Compliance
Support for payment service providers navigating registration, safeguarding and ongoing obligations under the Retail Payment Activities Act, from initial readiness through day to day operation.
AML Services & Transaction Monitoring
Design and operation of anti-money laundering programs, including customer due diligence, transaction monitoring and suspicious activity reporting, built to withstand regulatory scrutiny.
Sanctions Services & Screening Tools
Sanctions screening programs configured against relevant global lists, with watchlist management and alert disposition processes designed to reduce noise without reducing control.
Why Financial Crime & Sanctions Matter
Financial crime risk rarely stays still. Regulatory expectations continue to evolve, typologies grow more sophisticated, and sanctions regimes shift with little notice. For institutions operating across payments, banking, insurance and digital financial services, this creates a compliance environment that is difficult to manage with static policies alone.
The areas that most often require attention:
Evolving regulatory requirements across federal and provincial frameworks
Increasingly sophisticated financial crime typologies
Sanctions exposure across customers, counterparties and correspondent relationships
Elevated risk across new products, payment rails and digital financial services
Fragmented or inconsistent compliance processes across business lines
Monitoring and screening technology that has not kept pace with the business
Supportix Global works with institutions to bring structure and consistency to these areas, so that financial crime risk is managed as a coherent program rather than a set of disconnected obligations.
An End to End Financial Crime Lifecycle
Financial crime and sanctions risk is not managed at a single point in time. It moves through a continuous lifecycle, and effective programs are built to operate across every stage of it.
- 01Assess
- 02Identify
- 03Screen
- 04Monitor
- 05Investigate
- 06Escalate
- 07Report
- 08Test
- 09Improve
Supportix Global can engage at any point in this lifecycle, whether the need is a focused review of a single control, support through a specific stage such as investigations or reporting, or oversight of the broader program from design through ongoing testing and improvement. This allows institutions to bring in the right level of support for where they are today, without being locked into a single fixed engagement model.
