How you can make a difference The DocFox Compliance Team works together to provide a spectrum of comprehensive financial crime compliance related services to customers.
These range from providing sound advice and training regarding legislation, regulations, guidelines and best practice, to guiding customers through audits or undertaking operational projects on behalf of our customers through the application of pragmatic, risk-based principles.
The Compliance Services Team takes a three musketeers' approach of "all for one and one for all" and actively shares our knowledge and experience with each other. As part of the larger organization, we support our colleagues in their quest for knowledge around financial crime and are always on call to help them figure out a challenge, support the sales teams or work with them on new ideas for our software solution or product and service offerings.
In a perfect world, each team member would be able to support clients and colleagues across the full range of services and functions. However, as the team develops and the customer offering evolves, we will look to leverage strengths, build on foundations and interests, develop skills and share knowledge to raise the bar and provide opportunities for the entire team.
By guiding and supporting our customers in identifying, mitigating and reporting money laundering and financial crimes that result from predicate crimes, we can make a tangible impact in protecting our society, economy, environment and wildlife.
