What happens when companies outside financial services are required to comply with regulations such as AML (Anti-Money Laundering)? As we all know from our personal experiences of banks that want to verify who we are and where money is coming from or going to, the rules are complex. That’s challenging enough if you’re a bank. But if you’re an art dealer, a real estate agent or someone else working in the field of high-value goods, that’s even harder. Particularly if the rules aren’t something you’re familiar with. My guest on this episode, Solène Clément, is a lawyer who supports clients in this space in meeting their regulatory obligations in a pragmatic way. That doesn’t mean not complying with the rules or bending them. It means bringing the gap between regulatory objectives and the practicalities of delivering them on the ground. She’s also the President of the Anti-Money Laundering Observatory, a body that seeks to get regulators to understand the practical challenges of their regulations and those subject to them to improve their knowledge and understanding of them.
