Financial-crime risk differs by sector, and so should the controls
Decentralised digital assets move quickly and across many wallets, while small-scale mining produces physical value that is harder to trace. Each needs source-of-funds work matched to how the business actually operates.

Crypto traders and investment firms
Rapid wallet movements and volatile valuations make it hard to see where capital originated. We identify source of wealth, trace on-chain and off-chain flows, and document the basis for each funding decision.
Small-scale mining firms
Cash and precious metal transactions need a traceable chain from extraction to sale. We set up controls that record quantities, counterparties, and payment routes, so each transaction can be explained to a regulator or auditor.
