FAQ'S
What services does RMC Wise Ltd provide?
What is Risk Management, and how does RMC Wise Ltd approach it?
Risk Management involves identifying, assessing, and prioritizing risks to minimize, monitor, and control the probability or impact of an event that may or may not have a negative outcome on the Company. RMC Wise tailors risk management solutions based on a thorough understanding of each client's risk profile, business model and overall objectives, offering services such as governance, policies & procedures, enterprise-wide risk assessments, outsourced risk management functions, and cyber risk support.
What is Regulatory Compliance, and why is it important?
Regulatory Compliance ensures that a business adheres to external rules and internal controls imposed by regulatory bodies. It aims to protect license holders and their clients, ensure fair and transparent markets, reduce systemic risk, and combat financial crime. The Compliance Function advises and assists personnel in complying with legal and regulatory obligations, regularly assessing the effectiveness of measures and procedures in place. This is done through the effective implementation of a risk-based Compliance Monitoring Programme (CMP).
