As finance continues to proliferate digitally, so should the governance and compliance systems surrounding it. Regulation has a tendency to follow the trend rather than set it, and this has certainly been the case for many emerging digital financial sectors such as Fintech and Apps, Digital Currency Exchanges and Neobanks. bronID is an end to end AML/CTF online compliance toolkit built to help emerging digital financial sectors remain compliant with evolving regulation.

bronID provides online, digitally interoperable AML/CTF tools that help financial services and compliance officers navigate the complexities of anti-money laundering and counter-terrorism financing (AML/CTF) regulation globally.

With more regulatory changes aimed at the digital economy coming into force, it is essential your data systems are up to date to respond to these changes and achieve industry best-practice.
