The challenge

The MLRO role cannot sit vacant or junior.

The Money Laundering Reporting Officer carries personal regulatory responsibility, but a permanent senior hire is costly and hard to find.

Cost

Full-time cost

A permanent senior MLRO is expensive and difficult to recruit, especially for growing firms.

Personal

Accountability

The role carries personal regulatory liability that cannot be left vacant or under-qualified.

SARs

Decision quality

Suspicious activity decisions must be timely, defensible and properly documented.

Continuity

Coverage gaps

Leavers, absence and scaling create dangerous gaps in compliance oversight.
