Fenergo has published its latest analysis of global and regional regulatory fines for AML, KYC, sanctions, MiFID, and data privacy violations against financial institutions.

Between October 2018 and December 2019, fines from APAC regulators amounted to just 0.07% of all global fines at $7.46 million. A total of 35 fines were issued by regulators in Hong Kong, India, Pakistan, Australia and Taiwan.

Key Enforcement Trends:

  • FATF activity, including on-site visits and ongoing action plan reviews, may have contributed to enforcement actions in Taiwan and Pakistan
  • There were two fines issued for data privacy violations in 2019, one in Hong Kong and one in Taiwan
  • Fines issued in Australia were low when compared to previous years. In 2018 the regulator issued $534 million in fines, and in 2019 sanctions amounted only $173,011
  • India was the country with the highest fines (in $ and number), with $1.67 million in 12 fines by the Royal Bank of India

CLIENTS WHO TRUST

OUR SOFTWARE SOLUTIONS

We selected Fenergo’s Client Lifecycle Management software to enable us to manage the CDD / KYC processes from client onboarding to client off-boarding and all the KYC / CDD compliance and lifecycle events (periodic and event-driven reviews) that occur in between. A core part of our business transformation program will involve creating an internal centralized KYC target operating model that will help us to simultaneously improve the client experience and reduce the cost impact of the regulatory KYC activities. Fenergo is the technology platform that will underpin this initiative.
