AIMA invites you to join us on Wednesday, 7 September for the launch of AIMA's Guide to Sound Practices for Platforms (the ‘Guide’), produced in collaboration with Dechert LLP.
Customer due diligence is a vital part of investor onboarding for funds, investment managers and fund administrators. It encompasses anti-money laundering checks, sanctions checks and beneficial ownership reporting. AIMA, with the help of a working group of member volunteers co-chaired by Matthew Banham from Dechert and Anthony Cerroni from SS&C, has prepared a new Guide to Sound Practices for Customer Due Diligence, which focuses on key areas of the process including: (i) establishing a risk-based approach, (ii) approaches to due diligence including with respect to crypto assets and identification of underlying beneficial owners, (iii) virtual/digital CDD, (iv) sanctions screening, (v) internal governance, and (vi) outsourcing.
We are pleased to invite you to attend the launch of this guide which will feature a panel discussion of key sound practice considerations for customer due diligence.
