Navigating AML flags for offshore entity funding
Seeing increased scrutiny lately on source of funds documentation for transfers originating from certain offshore jurisdictions, even for well-established corporate entities. Specifically, the line between standard enhanced due diligence and outright AML red-flagging seems to be blurring. How are others navigating this, particularly when the end-user is a relatively new fintech client? Are specific transaction types more prone to this immediate escalation, or is it more about the originating bank/jurisdiction's perceived risk profile influencing the receiving end?

We've seen similar issues. The regulatory pressure on offshore entities means even legitimate funds get flagged more often now. It's really about having an airtight paper trail for every single dollar, which can be tough with newer fintechs.
