The latest episode of Arendt’s podcast Arendt We Live is devoted to financial and economic crime. What risks and obligations does a company need to consider in order to prevent and combat fraud, money laundering and terrorist financing? How can the stakes best be understood?
Arendt’s subject matter experts share answers to these questions using two real-life examples.
Today, financial and economic crime can take many forms. Companies are exposed to crime risk of many different types based on what they hold accountability for. Economic players, particularly in the financial sector, are now taking an increasingly active role in the fight against fraud, money laundering and terrorist financing.
In light of the obligations they now face, such as AML and KYC procedures, financial institutions are being exposed to new types of risks.
How should these issues be approached? What are these risks and how can we limit them? How should we react when we encounter fraud, or when the company comes under suspicion? All these questions are central to the concerns of business leaders.
The 7th episode of Arendt We Live addresses them directly, by analysing two real-life examples.
To discuss this topic, our podcast has brought together Jean-Luc Putz, Partner in Business Crime and Employment Law at Arendt & Medernach; Stéphanie Lhomme, Director at Arendt Regulatory & Consulting and Head of Forensic Investigations, Corporate Intelligence and Litigation Support and Sandrine Périot, Partner at Arendt Regulatory & Consulting and specialist in the fight against money laundering and terrorist financing.

In an increasingly complex environment, financial sector players regularly ask themselves whether they should outsource non-business critical activities.
Why outsource and how to do it? These simple questions involve a number of considerations. There are many reasons for players to evolve their operational models by relying on external partners: managing the increasing complexity of regulation, lack of qualified personnel, risk management, performance improvement, cost reduction...
However, entrusting a third party with the management of a function or process underpinning the business is not a trivial matter. It implies taking into consideration issues of responsibility and governance, defining a clear outsourcing model, supporting the change by developing the teams...
In this sixth episode of Arendt We Live, Christian Heinen, CEO of Arendt Services, Julien Ganter, Partner Arendt Regulatory & Consulting and Stéphane Joly-Meunier, Counsel at Arendt & Medernach, explore the opportunities linked to outsourcing, discuss the models and best practices implemented as well as the risks linked to such operations.

In the next two to three years, all players in the financial sector will be affected by a possible consolidation or reorganisation of their business, whether this takes the form of a merger or an acquisition.
The current economic context, very low interest rates on the one hand, and regulations that increase costs on the other, explain this hypothesis. But in such a case, what should we look out for? What rules should be respected? What legal solutions exist? How can this transitional phase be carried out in a professional manner?
🎧 Our experts Laurent Schummer and Marc Mouton answered these questions during our live podcast organised in collaboration with Paperjam and Paperjam Club.
In this episode, Bruno Gasparotto addressed issues related to VAT in the context of a merger or acquisition project.
