MALTA: LUXURY CARDS PROVIDER FINED €373,000 FOR MONEY LAUNDERING BREACHES

On 5 December, Malta Today reported that membership-only credit card provider for ultra-rich spenders Insignia has been fined €373,670 over AML compliance breaches.  These included that it was found to have minimised the risk for customers from non-reputable jurisdictions, with its risk-scoring grid failing to identify the true risks.  FIAU found several deficiencies with the company’s business risk assessment, which included insufficient information and lack of detailed controls on high-risk customers.
