A GwG-Fachstelle reviews and supervises financial intermediaries' compliance with the due-diligence obligations of the Swiss Anti-Money Laundering Act (GwG). This is general information, not legal advice - for binding guidance, consult your own Fachstelle or legal counsel.
For GwG-Fachstelle firms and similar organizations that continuously handle KYC/AML review for several client mandates (financial intermediaries or their end customers).
Intermediaries and specialist firms choose a plan and apply for the free 30-day trial. It starts only after approval; no payment is required for the trial. Paid continuation is activated separately. SROs use a separate application and annual contract.
Applications are reviewed manually. After approval, intermediaries and specialist firms receive an email and can start their 30-day trial. SRO activation and payment follow the separately agreed annual contract.
Yes. Each plan allows a certain number of client organizations - see the comparison table on the Pricing page. Need more? Contact us for a custom arrangement.
Administrators can request a plan change under “Subscription & usage” using “Request a plan change”. Contact support to cancel. Intermediary and specialist-firm subscriptions allow monthly cancellation; SRO subscriptions have annual contracts. The agreed terms determine the effective date. A request alone changes neither your subscription nor your invoice.
Every account can be protected with two-factor authentication, access is role-based, critical steps are subject to segregation of duties, and every security-relevant action is recorded in the audit log.
ComplySwiss uses the OpenSanctions default collection for customers and beneficial owners. It combines many sanctions, PEP and other watchlists. Examples of sanctions sources: Swiss SECO, US OFAC, EU financial sanctions, UK FCDO and the UN Security Council. Examples of PEP sources: Parliaments and public authorities, including the Swiss Federal Assembly and European Parliament. These are examples, not a complete source list or a separate result for every list. Review potential matches in the screening dossier. Sample data is not submitted to external screening providers.
The AI assistant is an optional add-on to ComplySwiss. It supports your team with alerts and cases: for an alert, it explains in plain words why it was triggered, lists risk indicators and missing information, and suggests notes for closing or escalating it. For a case, it writes a summary with a chronology, open points, next steps and a draft closing memo. You start it with one click directly in the alert or case.
No. It only produces drafts. They are not saved to the alert or case automatically, and no AML or KYC decision is changed automatically. Review and decision remain with your staff; drafts must be checked against the original sources. Where information is missing, the draft says so instead of filling in facts. A report to MROS is only raised as a question for the compliance officer.
Only the content of the alert or case concerned is sent. Names, addresses, customer numbers, IBANs, wallet addresses, e-mail addresses, phone numbers and other identifiers are replaced with placeholders before sending; ID images and videos are never sent. Processing uses the language model of Mistral AI in France (EU), and your data is not used for training. The assistant only becomes active once an administrator of your account has consented to the transfer; consent can be withdrawn at any time. Details are in section 7b of the privacy policy.
CHF 35 per month and subscription account from activation, with up to 300 analyses per month. During the trial, 20 analyses are included. Each analysed alert or case counts once per month; re-creating a draft in another language does not use up another analysis. For paid subscriptions, we activate the add-on on request – write to us via the contact page.
