What is a MLRO?

A Money Laundering Reporting Officer (MLRO) is a person responsible for implementing and overseeing a company’s anti-money laundering (AML) compliance program. The MLRO acts as the focal point within the relevant firm for the oversight of all activity relating to anti-money laundering. The MLRO needs to be senior, to be free to act on his own authority and to be informed of any relevant knowledge or suspicion in the relevant firm.
