In the field of Anti-Money Laundering and Terrorism Financing, Luxembourg has reached a certain level of maturity. Nevertheless the business context is evolving due to changes that globalisation, new economy, new investors, geopolitics and legal framework incur. In this sensitive and ever-changing landscape a number of tasks related to AML require (and will keep requiring) human involvement because interpretation of laws and circulars remain subjective for various reasons. This will remain under the responsibility of legal and business compliance. On the other hand, increasing volumes and crossed interactions between financial players calls for the industrialisation of the monitoring of transactions that will allow detection of activities which are unusual, risk-bearing and potentially not in line with client profile and business. In this respect the use of efficient AML tools can provide a great level of support. In close cooperation with its business partners, Siemens IT Solutions and Services Finance offer turnkey, cost-effective and safe solutions for all providers of financial services, in order to help them to correspond to the national and international regulations for fighting money laundering and terrorism financing.
