Readiness before
relationships.

CASIV consults with Caribbean and other international financial institutions on AML/CFT, sanctions, financial-crime controls and correspondent-banking readiness. We combine practitioner expertise, bank due diligence, worldwide banking connections and strategic partnerships to help institutions prepare for credible engagement with prospective U.S. correspondents.

01 / CONNECTED EXPERTISE

AML experience. International banking relationships. Practical introductions.

CASIV draws on senior AML, financial-intelligence and enforcement experience, together with worldwide banking connections and strategic partnerships. We help institutions understand counterpart expectations, strengthen their evidence and facilitate qualified discussions.

Prepare for the scrutiny behind a banking relationship.

Clear governance. Strong controls. Decision-ready due diligence.

02 / BANKING DUE DILIGENCE

Build a clear, defensible institutional risk profile.

We assess governance, AML/CFT and sanctions controls, customer and geographic exposure, beneficial ownership, transaction monitoring, policies, testing and remediation. CASIV helps organize supporting evidence, prepare due-diligence materials, respond to information requests and prepare management for correspondent-bank discussions.

03 / WOLFSBERG & CBDDQ READINESS

Prepare for Wolfsberg reviews and U.S. bank scrutiny.

Through Senior Advisor Erik Rosenblatt’s professional experience working with the Wolfsberg Group on international financial-crime initiatives, CASIV brings practical perspective to readiness. We help banks prepare the Correspondent Banking Due Diligence Questionnaire (CBDDQ), organize supporting evidence, identify and address control gaps, and anticipate the deeper review U.S. correspondents apply to governance, customers, geographies, payment activity and financial-crime controls. Wolfsberg principles and the CBDDQ guide preparation; CASIV does not claim membership in the Wolfsberg Group or offer a certification.

04 / CORRESPONDENT-BANKING FACILITATION

Move from readiness to informed engagement.

CASIV helps identify potentially suitable correspondent institutions, facilitate qualified introductions, support information exchange and prepare bank leaders for onboarding discussions and follow-up due-diligence requests. Our international network can help open the right conversations; each institution’s fit and interest must be assessed independently.

05 / U.S. BANKING ACCESS

Support the process while the bank controls its decision.

We help respondent institutions present their risk profile and control environment clearly and support them through due diligence and onboarding. The prospective U.S. correspondent retains sole authority over its independent review, risk decision, onboarding, account terms and any ongoing relationship.

Independent advisory and facilitation. CASIV does not provide banking services, hold or transmit client funds, or guarantee a correspondent relationship. The correspondent bank makes its own decision.
