    Compliance That Works for Your Firm

    Compliance That Works for Your Firm

    For accountants and auditors, AML/CFT is not separate from everyday work. It comes into client checks, audit engagements, tax work, advisory services, reporting, and the records your team keeps. Vertex Compliance reviews what is actually happening inside your firm. We look at client files, ownership details, risk ratings, screening, reporting, and how concerns move through the business. This helps show where a process is working and where something may have been missed. Your clients and services also shape the level of risk. A complex company structure, overseas connection, unusual payment, or higher-risk engagement may need closer attention. We help you work out what needs fixing and what can stay as it is.

    Key Compliance Challenges for Accountants & Auditors

    Client & Ownership Risk

    Complicated company structures can make it difficult to see who owns or controls the business and who is really behind it.

    Unusual Financial Activity

    Odd payments, false invoices, or figures that do not add up can sometimes be missed during normal accounting or audit work.

    Cross-Border Risk

    Overseas clients, offshore companies, and higher-risk countries can make ownership checks, sanctions screening, and due diligence more difficult.

    Higher-Risk Work

    Some tax, insolvency, restructuring, and advisory work can bring greater financial crime risk than routine accounting services.

    Reporting & Records

    Missing records or unclear reporting steps can make it harder to explain what happened when suspicious activity is found.

    Compliance Services for Accountants & Auditors

    Regulatory Compliance

    Accounting and audit firms need AML/CFT controls that fit the work they handle. Vertex Compliance can review client onboarding, beneficial ownership checks, CDD and EDD, sanctions and PEP screening, suspicious activity reporting, goAML processes, and compliance records. We also look at whether these controls are being followed properly across audit, accounting, tax, and advisory work.

    Audit & Engagement Risk

    Some clients and engagements carry more risk than others. Complex ownership, unusual transactions, offshore structures, tax work, insolvency, or restructuring can all need closer attention. Vertex Compliance helps your firm assess these risks, improve client and engagement ratings, and check whether the right controls are being applied.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    We can look at the main AML/CFT areas within your accounting or audit firm. That includes client checks, CDD, EDD, beneficial ownership, sanctions and PEP screening, risk assessments, suspicious activity reporting, goAML, training, and record keeping.
    Yes. An audit practice does not always face the same risks as a tax or advisory firm. We first look at the work you do, the clients you serve, where they operate, and the controls already in place. That tells us where to focus.
    Yes. We can review the framework you already use rather than asking you to start again. This may involve policies, client files, risk ratings, ownership checks, screening, reporting, escalation, and training records. We then point out the areas that need attention.
    We look at the client, who owns the business, the service you are providing, where the business operates, and anything unusual about the activity involved. This helps show when normal checks are enough and when a closer review may be needed.
    Yes. We can check what happens when someone in your firm spots something unusual. That includes how the concern is recorded, who reviews it, when it is escalated, and how reporting is handled. We can also look at your goAML process.
    Yes. Vertex Compliance can look at the areas a regulator is likely to ask about. This may include client files, risk assessments, screening records, reporting, staff training, policies, and internal controls. You then have time to deal with gaps before the review begins.
    Yes. Training can be built around the work your people actually do. We can cover AML/CFT, ownership checks, sanctions, PEPs, unusual transactions, suspicious activity, reporting, escalation, and record keeping for accounting, audit, tax, advisory, and compliance teams.
