Meeting the lines is the start. How clearly your file shows them is a separate question, and it is the work we do.
A rare Cape Town seat inside a top offshore law firm without needing articles or admission. Onboarding/CDD analysis is applied FICA-style regulatory work: verifying identities, assessing risk, documenting a defensible file. Offshore firm compliance experience is highly portable: it signals exposure to multi-jurisdictional AML standards that SA banks, CASPs, and fund administrators actively pay for.
Prepare a customer due diligence summary for a fictional BVI company with a layered ownership structure, identifying the ultimate beneficial owners, the risk flags, and the additional documentation you would request before onboarding.
