Are you exposing your financial organisation to regulatory fines, failed audits, or reputational damage because your Customer Due Diligence and Qualified Intermediary compliance processes lack rigour? The Customer Due Diligence and Qualified Intermediary Self-Assessment Kit gives you immediate access to a comprehensive, audit-ready framework that ensures your client onboarding, risk classification, and intermediary validation processes meet international anti-money laundering (AML) standards and regulatory expectations. With 632 precisely scoped assessment questions mapped to FATF Recommendations, ISO 22389, and Wolfsberg Group guidance, this self-assessment identifies critical control gaps before regulators do, turning compliance from a risk into a strategic advantage.

How This Helps You
Every unverified beneficial owner or poorly documented intermediary relationship increases your exposure to money laundering facilitation charges and regulatory penalties. This self-assessment enables compliance officers and risk leads to systematically verify that Customer Due Diligence procedures are not just policy statements, but operationally effective. By answering the 632 evidence-based questions, you’ll uncover hidden vulnerabilities in customer risk rating models, third-party oversight, and ongoing monitoring triggers, risks that generic checklists miss. Implementing the findings strengthens audit outcomes, supports licensing renewals, and demonstrates to regulators a proactive, risk-based compliance culture. Inaction means continuing to rely on outdated processes that may fail under scrutiny, jeopardise client relationships, and result in enforcement actions that cost millions in fines and lost business.
Who Is This For?
- Compliance managers in banks, credit unions, and fintechs responsible for AML/CFT programme effectiveness
- AML officers implementing or upgrading Customer Due Diligence workflows under FATF Recommendation 10 and 24
- Internal auditors validating Qualified Intermediary arrangements for regulated financial products
- Legal and risk teams in investment platforms that rely on intermediary-led client onboarding
- Consultants building client-specific CDD frameworks aligned with global standards
Choosing this self-assessment isn’t just about checking a compliance box, it’s a strategic decision to future-proof your organisation against evolving financial crime threats and regulatory expectations. You’re not buying a document; you’re implementing a repeatable, defensible process that strengthens governance and builds stakeholder trust.
