Business Risk Assessment
A strong AML framework starts with a clear understanding of risk. NIYEAHMA delivers Business Risk Assessment services that help regulated businesses identify, assess, and manage money laundering and terrorism financing risks in a structured, defensible way. Our assessments go beyond compliance checklists and provide a clear, regulator-ready view of where your risks sit and how they are controlled. As a global AML consulting firm, we support organisations worldwide with Enterprise-Wide Risk Assessment, also known as Firm-Wide Risk Assessment, Practice-Wide Risk Assessment, Entity-Wide Risk Assessment, EWRA, PWRA, BRA, FWRA, CWRA, or ML/FT Risk Assessment that align with regulatory expectations and FATF standards.
A Business Risk Assessment (BRA), also referred to as an Enterprise-Wide Risk Assessment (EWRA) or Firm-Wide Risk Assessment (FWRA), is the foundation of an effective AML programme. It helps you: ✔ Identify inherent ML and FT risks across your business ✔ Understand how products, customers, geographies, and delivery channels impact risk ✔ Evaluate the effectiveness of existing controls ✔ Define a clear, documented risk profile regulators can rely on Whether described as a Practice-Wide Risk Assessment (PWRA) or Company-Wide Risk Assessment (CWRA), the objective remains the same. Establish a clear and defensible view of risk across the organisation.
Our ML/FT Risk Assessment Approach
We assess risks like solving a business puzzle where every piece fits perfectly to protect you from financial threats. Here’s an overview of how we do it.
Business Overview
We are your business’s personal detective. Products, customers, countries, staff, technology, and third parties, we take a 360 degree view of your operations.
Identify Risk Scenario
Like film critics analyse the plot of a thriller, we analyse ML/TF/PF risks. What, who, where, when, and how we outline every scenario.
Analyse Scenarios
For every risk scenario, we get into the details of the story. What’s the probability of it happening? What is the possible impact? We prepare for the plot twists in advance.
Analyse Controls
This is the step where we assess the measures already in place. We check if your existing controls are in harmony with the identified risks or if there are any off notes.
Determine Residual Risks
Comparing inherent risks to control levels, what’s left? Residual risks. We balance the scales.
Assess Risk Appetite
Does the risk fall within your comfort zone? This is like setting boundaries for your business, just like a wise strategist playing chess.
Take Additional Measures
We act! We determine to either tighten control or reduce risk exposure based on our assessment.
