WHY IT MATTERS

The point of it.

Compliance that lives in spreadsheets gets done late or not at all. Vakeel makes the conflict check a gate, the AML recheck a schedule, the undertaking a tracked promise and the file review a workflow, and every one of them leaves evidence.Compliance that lives in spreadsheets gets done late or not at all.

COMMON QUESTIONS

Good to know.

Is the conflict check really mandatory? +

Yes. A conflict of interest search with name-variant matching must be run before a client can be created. There is no way around it.

How does the Companies House integration help AML?How do rechecks work? +

Company details, directors and PSC contacts are pulled straight from Companies House, so verification starts from the official record, and dissolved companies are automatically forced to high risk.Each client's risk rating sets the recheck cadence: high risk every 6 months, medium every 12, low every 24, with reminders to the responsible advocate.
