In Luxembourg’s tightly regulated financial ecosystem, staying compliant with Anti-Money Laundering (AML) and Know Your Customer (KYC) regulations is not optional, it’s essential. Cascade provides a purpose-built AML software suite that enables banks, fund administrators, fiduciaries, and corporate service providers to automate compliance, streamline onboarding, and maintain a full audit trail, so important for CSSF inspections.
Why Luxembourg institutions trust Cascade
Cascade’s AML and KYC solution is designed with Luxembourg’s regulatory landscape in mind. The platform supports the Grand Duchy’s financial services ecosystem, addressing the needs of professionals across banking, fund management, and legal and corporate services.
1. Automated client onboarding
Digitize KYC onboarding with automated workflows, risk-based questionnaires, and document validation. Capture all required client data once and reuse it across entities and compliance processes.
2. Sanctions & PEP screening
Real-time sanctions, politically exposed persons (PEP), and adverse media checks against global and European databases. Cascade integrates with leading data providers to deliver accurate, timely results while minimizing false positives.
3. Risk assessment engine
Cascade’s configurable risk engine lets compliance teams assign weights to risk factors and automatically score clients. The system continuously monitors risk status and triggers reassessment when new information becomes available.
4. CSSF-ready audit trails
All user actions are automatically logged. Export complete audit trails at any time to support inspections, like, for example, from Luxembourg’s Commission de Surveillance du Secteur Financier (CSSF).
5. Beneficial ownership (UBO) mapping
Cascade helps identify and visualize complex ownership structures to comply with Luxembourg’s UBO register requirements. The platform allows linking of multiple entities and stakeholders to maintain an up-to-date beneficial ownership map.
