In today’s complex professional environment, monitoring suspicious transactions and accumulating currency transaction reports (CTRs) and monetary instrument logs (MILs) is becoming increasingly difficult. Firms with outdated guard systems and heavy work-required processes are not able to act fast or efficiently to report any issues noted according to compliance regulations, therefore causing them to face fines and damage their corporate reputation.

Businesses need an efficient CTR program that fits their unique, dynamic requirements to help meet AML regulations. An efficient program will help meet responsibilities and use business time and money resourcefully. The right program will help decide when to file a CTR and notify you before you even need to do any work.
