Ensure full alignment with Romania’s anti-money laundering laws with tailored advisory services. Through our AML advisory services in Romania, we provide end-to-end AML compliance support to financial institutions, DNFBPs (designated non-financial businesses and professions), gambling service providers, fin-techs, law firms, real estate agencies, and other reporting entities, in line with Law no. 129/2019, BNR regulations, and ONPCSB guidance.
