Turkey AML regulatory landscape
Compliance teams working with Turkey-linked customers, counterparties, or transactions typically screen against UN lists and Turkish domestic asset-freeze decisions, alongside global sanctions regimes (OFAC, UN, EU) that reach across borders. The primary regulators are:
- MASAK (Financial Crimes Investigation Board)
- BDDK
The core legal framework is Turkish AML Law No. 5549 and related MASAK regulations. AMLX doesn't replace that framework — it gives your team a faster, correlated way to screen against it.
The problem AMLX solves
The common friction point for Turkey-facing compliance teams is managing sanctions adjacency and trade-finance exposure across Europe–Middle East corridors. AMLX's live correlation engine pulls sanctions, PEP, adverse media, and financial-crime feeds into one triage dashboard, automatically linking related records so nothing gets missed by only checking one list at a time.
How teams use it
- Screen new customers, counterparties, or beneficial owners with Turkey exposure in real time.
- Correlate hits across sanctions, PEP, and adverse media instead of manually cross-referencing each source.
- Export a clean, shareable PDF record of findings for your file or an examiner.
