ABOUT TRASETTI

Independent advice. No product to sell.

A specialist consultancy for the leaders responsible for financial crime compliance and transaction banking.

Trasetti is an independent specialist consultancy. We advise banks, financial institutions, payment providers and the leaders responsible for financial crime compliance and transaction banking.

WHY WE EXIST

Complex problems attract activity. Activity is not the same as control.

More reviews, more systems and more reporting can all look like progress. They can also make it harder to see what is actually happening. Our work is to help senior teams recover a clear view: what risk matters, what the control is doing, and what decision should follow.

We are not interested in complexity for its own sake. A useful piece of work leaves the client able to explain the judgement, defend the evidence and make the next change with confidence.

HOW WE WORK

Four commitments.

Start with the risk

Not the template, the product or the previous report. The question is what decision the work must support.

Test the practice

We examine how controls operate in the real workflow, including the exceptions and workarounds that formal documentation can miss.

Show the reasoning

We give clear judgements and make the basis visible, so the client can challenge it, own it and use it.

Be candid about limits

We separate what we know, what we infer and what requires legal or regulatory interpretation.

WHAT WE ARE — AND WHAT WE ARE NOT

An adviser, not a vendor.

We are advisers, not vendors. We do not sell software, implement technology platforms or position a product as the answer. Our independence is central to the judgement we provide.

We do not provide legal or regulatory interpretation. Where a question needs it, we say so and work alongside the client's own advisers.

We advise institutions. We are not a bank, payment institution or technology vendor.

OUR AMBITION

International, stated honestly.

Our ambition is international: to advise institutions across markets and regulatory regimes. We are building that practice openly, without claiming offices or a footprint we do not yet have.

That honesty is part of the way we work. A clear view of what is known — and what is not — is the beginning of a sound judgement.
