About Us
Argentex is a global specialist in currency risk management and alternative banking solutions for businesses and financial institutions. Established in 2012 and headquartered in London, Argentex listed on London’s AIM market in mid-2019 and has since expanded to Amsterdam, Dubai, and Australia, supported by approximately 180 staff. We are an FCA regulated business.
About the Role:
We are seeking a highly collaborative and diligent Institutional Onboarding Analyst to join our Onboarding team. The role involves ensuring compliance with regulatory requirements, focusing on alternative investment funds (AIFs) and other alternative transaction banking services.
The successful candidate will support the onboarding of funds and banking clients by assisting in implementing and monitoring compliance policies, especially related to anti-money laundering (AML), know-your-customer (KYC), and cross-border regulations.
This role requires a strong understanding of alternative banking and investment fund structures, working closely with internal teams to mitigate risks and ensure adherence to global financial regulations.
Key Responsibilities:
* Conduct KYC/CDD investigations on new clients, including enhanced due diligence for high-risk clients.
* Screen clients using automated tools, investigating potential sanctions or PEP matches.
* Verify client identification, proof of address, and source of funds/wealth documentation.
* Perform regular risk assessments, especially for cross-border transactions and AIF structures, and suggest mitigation strategies.
* Identify and pursue new business opportunities within the client portfolio.
* Assess client risk profiles and determine ongoing monitoring levels.
* Manage suspension or closure of client accounts.
* Reactivate or refresh institutional client accounts.
* Communicate with sales and internal departments regarding onboarding matters.
* Investigate financial crime suspicions and escalate findings appropriately.
* Respond to internal inquiries and resolve onboarding issues.
Who are we looking for?
* At least 2 years’ experience in compliance, focusing on alternative transaction banking or investment funds.
* Knowledge of Financial Crime trends, including AI and technology developments.
* Understanding of FCA regulations, MiFID II, AIFMD, AML/CFT, and related regulations.
* Experience in fast-paced, collaborative environments.
* Operational knowledge of client transaction products.
