AML Compliance Officer (MLRO) Services Saudi Arabia
Outsourced Money Laundering Reporting Officer services — MLRO appointment, STR filing, regulatory oversight, and AML governance for Saudi regulated entities.
Saudi Arabia's AML regulations require regulated entities to appoint a dedicated Money Laundering Reporting Officer (MLRO) — responsible for receiving internal suspicious transaction reports, assessing them, and filing Suspicious Transaction Reports (STRs) with SAFIU (Saudi Financial Intelligence Unit). The MLRO must have adequate seniority, independence, and AML expertise to carry out this role effectively.
For smaller regulated entities and DNFBPs that need a qualified MLRO but cannot justify a full-time appointment, Intelli Solutions provides an outsourced MLRO service — a named, qualified professional serving as your registered MLRO, carrying out all MLRO responsibilities, and providing monthly AML governance oversight.
MLRO Responsibilities
- Receiving and evaluating internal suspicious transaction reports from staff
- Determining whether to file an STR with SAFIU — and filing within the required 3-business-day window
- Overseeing the implementation of the AML programme — CDD, monitoring, training
- Maintaining AML records and producing the annual AML compliance report
- Liaising with SAMA, CMA, or other regulators on AML matters
- Ensuring the AML policy and procedures are kept up to date with regulatory changes
