  • Regulatory Readiness: Conduct internal "Mock Audits" prior to inspections by regulators or external auditors to mitigate compliance risks.

5. Communication & Collaboration

  • Stakeholder Management: Maintain professional communication with the AML Operations team to discuss audit disputes and coordinate with external auditors or regulators during examinations.
