Ensuring Regulatory Compliance for a Leading Financial Institution

Client: Midwestern Financial Group

Our Solution: A Holistic Compliance Strategy Tailored for the Client

JPS Global’s experts worked side by side with the financial institution to deliver a multi-phased, in-depth compliance overhaul.

1. Comprehensive Regulatory Analysis

We conducted a deep dive into regulatory changes such as:

  • AML Updates: New rules impacting onboarding and monitoring procedures.
  • Data Privacy Mandates: Implications of recent data protection laws (e.g., GDPR and CCPA) on customer information.
  • Cybersecurity Protocols: Identification of gaps in compliance with standards like SOC 2 and ISO 27001.
    Our findings provided clarity on the operational impact of these changes and helped create a roadmap for full compliance.

2. Targeted Risk Assessment and Audits

We performed a detailed audit of the company’s systems, reviewing:

  • Transaction Monitoring Systems for AML gaps.
  • Data Handling Procedures to ensure privacy compliance.
  • Vendor Management Processes to mitigate third-party risks.

This step highlighted critical vulnerabilities that required immediate attention to avoid regulatory penalties.

3. Strategy Development: Compliance with a Competitive Edge

Rather than simply addressing compliance gaps, JPS Global designed a forward-looking compliance strategy aligned with the institution’s long-term goals. The strategy included:

  • Policy Overhaul: Refinement of policies to align with new regulatory expectations.
  • Process Optimization: Streamlining procedures to integrate compliance with business operations.
  • Proactive Staff Training: Development of multilingual training modules to ensure cross-functional staff could meet compliance needs.

4. Implementation Support and Ongoing Oversight

We took an active role in the implementation phase:

  • Collaborating with internal teams to integrate new procedures seamlessly.
  • Providing real-time guidance during regulator audits to ensure full adherence.
  • Establishing continuous monitoring frameworks to identify emerging compliance risks.

The Results: Full Compliance and Operational Excellence
