Due Diligence Repository

The Bankersalmanac.com Due Diligence Repository provides a single, central source of the primary information required to conduct due diligence checks on bank counterparties. Developed in association with the Wolfsberg Group* to support the principles of a risk-based approach to anti money laundering (AML), it can:

  • Minimize compliance costs
  • Shorten the time taken to onboard new bank counterparties
  • Reduce administrative burden for onboarding and due diligence teams
  • Provide consistency and uniformity of information
  • Increase efficiency of KYC reviews of banks
  • Notify you of changes to your counterparties' status

Reduce your compliance burden

Obtained directly from banks and regulators, the Bankersalmanac.com Due Diligence Repository contains copies of key documents including:

  • Bank licences (including indicators for offshore bank licences)
  • Corporate Governance Documents, Extract from Commercial Register, Articles of Association etc

Bankers' Almanac is very reliable source of information on banks and other financial institutions all over the world. The due diligence module has helped to make my work easier and decision making a lot quicker.
