Fact Sheets and White Papers
Since 1999 Proximal Consulting have produced a wealth of information that has been referenced globally through TV, radio and newspapers, alongside forming the backbone for several international books.
On this page we have expanded our historical white papers through the production of new relevant fact sheets that clearly explain and analyse AML, KYC and business crime topics.

White Papers
The Proximal Consulting white paper series began when Proximal Consulting launched in 1999. The white papers provided precise and detailed information on cutting edge business crime topics during a period when the Internet as a source of business information was in its infancy. We are now making these white papers available again.
Whilst the specific cases and examples used in the white papers are historical, the fundamental issues and potential red flags have remained the same.
Please note that the white papers are provided as an un-edited archive: any content, laws, regulations or similar were correct at the time of publishing, but may now be out of date.
