Senior Compliance Expertise on Retainer — Without the Full-Time Cost

Nexus People provides outsourced Money Laundering Reporting Officer (MLRO), Compliance Officer (CO), and Chief Compliance Officer (CCO) services to all UAE regulated entities. Rather than carrying the full cost of a permanent hire — salary, visa, benefits, recruitment, and ongoing training — you get senior compliance expertise embedded into your business on a fixed monthly retainer. Your outsourced officer attends board meetings, handles regulator correspondence, oversees STR/SAR reporting, monitors regulatory changes, and ensures your compliance programme stays current and audit-ready.

Why you must act now

⚡

UAE AML law requires every regulated entity to have a designated MLRO — operating without one exposes your business, your directors, and your licence to regulatory sanction.

⚡

Qualified MLROs and compliance officers are in critical short supply in the UAE — salary expectations are escalating and recruitment timelines are long. Outsourcing removes this constraint immediately.

⚡

Federal Decree-Law 10/2025 expanded personal liability: individual fines for directors and compliance officers now range from AED 100,000 to AED 5,000,000.

⚡

Your current compliance officer may not have the specific expertise required for new regulatory requirements — TBML, AI mandate, MENAFATF evaluation readiness — all introduced since 2024.

⚡

Regulatory change is accelerating: CBUAE, VARA, DFSA, and MoE all issued new requirements in 2025. Keeping pace requires dedicated, experienced compliance expertise.
