High Risk Banking

Feb 19

It is more difficult to open a bank account for a company in a high-risk industry, compared to companies in traditional industries. This is due to KYC/AML requirements typically set out by central banks and other regulatory bodies.

Navigating the banking system as a high-risk business can be tricky. Banks are subject to heavy regulations, so any accounts related to cannabis may be subject to further scrutiny. Therefore, it is important to be prepared when seeking approval from banking compliance officers. This should include being aware of the due diligence process that is involved in order to ensure successful approval for cannabis business banking. FirmEU can assist you with opening a bank account for your high-risk business.
