Produce the operational analysis and supporting data required for the MLRO to define, refine and approve monitoring thresholds, rules and scenarios. Define business requirements for compliance dashboards, case-management workflows, alerts, reporting tools and process automation. Establish quality-assurance processes covering alert reviews, investigations, escalations and case documentation. Review samples of completed work to identify inconsistencies, control weaknesses, training needs and potential blind spots. Ensure that complex or sensitive cases are escalated promptly to the MLRO. Coordinate the operational preparation of SARs while recognizing that the final decision remains with the MLRO. Ensure that investigation files provide a complete, consistent and auditable record of the analysis performed and the conclusions reached. Law Enforcement, Banking Reporting and External Requests Coordinate the operational handling of requests from law-enforcement authorities and other authorized external bodies. Prepare complete case files and supporting documentation for the MLRO’s review and approval. Oversee AML-related reporting and communications with banking and payment partners.
