October 17, 2026

The Money Laundering Reporting Officer (MLRO) is a natural person, at management level, appointed by a Cayman entity conducting relevant financial business to receive internal suspicious activity reports, assess them and, where appropriate, report to the Cayman Islands Financial Reporting Authority. The Anti-Money Laundering Regulations require in-scope entities; including regulated funds; to appoint an MLRO, together with a Deputy MLRO (DMLRO) and an Anti-Money Laundering Compliance Officer (AMLCO). These roles may be outsourced to a suitably qualified service provider, subject to appropriate oversight.
