Halcyon Compliance, was created by two Financial Crime subject matter experts and long-time colleagues who have combined experience of more than 25 years in the industry, including many years as deputy MLROs and MLROs running Financial Crime teams. With backgrounds firmly cemented in the complexities of managing Financial Crime compliance at large professional services firms, we also have experience working with smaller/mid-size firms and in the wider regulated sector. We recognise that not all firms have Big 4 or magic circle budgets, as an ICAEW member firm ourselves, we understand the practicalities of developing policies, controls and procedures for smaller firms. We want to help our clients go beyond checklists and jargon-filled guidance to really understand – how does this work in practice, and how can it be of benefit to our business? We are not theory-driven consultants, but Financial Crime risk professionals who have deep subject matter expertise and experience in applying it. We won’t sell services we don’t think you need and will always aim to be honest, realistic and transparent in all of our dealings. We want to build real relationships, become trusted advisors, and join you on your journey to better compliance.
