Understanding the role

How the RC fits within your AML/CFT governance

A clear overview of the RC and RR roles within your governance structure.

RC and RR, clearly defined

The RC is responsible for the control of compliance with AML/CFT obligations across the structure.


Acting within the governance framework, the RC reports regularly to the RR, supports escalation handling, and contributes to board-ready reporting, recurring AML/CFT training and authority-facing coordination.

RR – Responsable du Respect des obligations

The RR may be either one board member individually or the board acting collegially.
