SERVICES

What we do

Five services, each mapped to the practical compliance needs of institutions that cannot afford — or do not need — an enterprise-scale compliance department.

01

Anti-money laundering program design

Design of anti-money laundering and counter-terrorist financing prevention programs tailored to the scale of the institution.

02

Pre-transactional due diligence

Background and integrity review of companies prior to a client's investment or acquisition, assessing corruption and bribery risk.

03

AI-driven transaction monitoring

Design of artificial-intelligence-driven systems for the detection of suspicious transactions and financial crime.

04

Compliance audits

Review of an institution's regulatory compliance and preparation for a formal regulatory examination.

05

Staff training

Training for client institution staff on regulatory compliance obligations and emerging AI governance requirements.

METHODOLOGY

A four-component compliance framework

Built for resource-constrained institutions to implement in stages, capturing the greatest risk-reduction benefit first rather than requiring a full simultaneous build-out.

ABOUT

Built on a legal, financial, and regulatory background

Ruiz Echeverria Advisory Group was founded to close a specific gap: financial institutions and fintechs serving underserved U.S. markets are exposed to the same rising regulatory expectations as large banks, without the same in-house compliance infrastructure.

The firm's approach combines a legal, regulatory compliance, and financial risk background with the practical application of artificial intelligence to compliance workflows — translating complex regulatory requirements into frameworks institutions can actually implement.
