Client Overview 

Kiltoprak is a trust and corporate services provider operating across the Netherlands, Switzerland, and Malta. As a licensed entity under Dutch regulators like the DNB (De Nederlandsche Bank), they face strict AML/CTF and due diligence obligations. With a growing international client base and rising transaction volume, manual processes became a bottleneck, especially around ensuring traceability, cross-border compliance, and audit readiness.

Challenge 

Operating across multiple countries, Kiltoprak faced increasing pressure to strengthen its compliance infrastructure. Their client acceptance and transaction monitoring processes were mostly document-driven, relying heavily on email threads, manual file uploads, and disjointed review cycles. This posed several risks: 


  • Reliance on email and documents for onboarding and reviews 
  • Difficulty enforcing 4-eye compliance and tracking approvals 
  • Inconsistent documentation across branches 
  • Limited visibility into review statuses and risk indicators 
  • High risk of non-compliance during DNB inspections
