In this concluding episode of a three-part series, The AML Clinic Podcast brings together the core themes explored across the trilogy: how the SRA assesses seriousness, what it looks for in AML file reviews, and how internal decision-making shapes regulatory outcomes.

Michelle Clement (former SRA AML Regulatory Manager) focuses on where outcomes are truly determined in practice, at the point where risk is interpreted and judgement is applied.

Grounded in real-world environments, this episode explores:

  • how risk is interpreted under pressure 
  • why consistency remains difficult across firms 
  • where technically complete files fall short 
  • what supports defensible decision-making 

Designed for partners, MLROs, MLCOs and compliance professionals, this final instalment offers a clear view of what determines whether your AML approach stands up to scrutiny.
