On Demand Case Study
From 50,000 Alerts to Zero:
AML Remediation in Action

At A Glance

One of Australia’s leading gambling brands faced a backlog of 50,000 unreviewed system-generated monitoring alerts. The board and regulator were notified immediately, and WhiteLight AML was engaged to plan and execute the remediation.

Challenges

  • Significant backlog of alerts creating regulatory and operational risk

  • Pressure from the board and regulator for rapid resolution

  • Need for scalable resources and consistent reporting

Solutions

WhiteLight AML partnered with the client’s Line 1 & 2 teams to scope and deliver the remediation. A tailored remediation procedure and workflows were created, including target cycle times, templates, and reporting frameworks.

A team of 30 financial crime analysts was mobilised within three weeks, led by a senior WhiteLight consultant and AML SME/manager, with weekly reporting provided to the board and regulator.

Discovery
Stage One

Scoped the backlog, applied a risk-based prioritisation model, and designed remediation workflows, templates and reporting requirements.

Execution
Stage Two

Deployed a 30-analyst remediation team within three weeks. Delivered the full remediation within four months, on time and on budget, while maintaining transparent reporting to stakeholders.

Assurance
Stage Three

A Big 4 audit team was engaged to conduct post-remediation assurance. The program passed with no material findings, and the regulator closed the matter.
