Overview

Client

Confidential

For a private equity and investment banking firm, Fasken developed an enhanced: 1) compliance manual; 2) investor and investee due diligence process; and 3) KYC program. This revamp of its sanctions, anti-money laundering, and anti-bribery policies was a condition of a $13 million capital injection by Export Development Canada into the client’s development fund, which provides growth capital to small and medium-sized enterprises (financial services, consumer products and services, and sustainable industries) operating primarily in Mexico.
