The CCBTO supports China-Canada economic business development and specializes in comprehensive wholesale banking business including corporate banking, trade finance, and foreign exchange.

"The decision by CCBTO to use Alessa for its AML needs is an indication of this bank's commitment to enhancing its sanctions compliance management and control over customers from high-risk countries or regions, as well as, meeting its other regulatory obligations," said David Shuen, Chief Compliance Officer and Chief AML Officer at CCBTO

According to Andrew Simpson, Chief Operating Officer at CaseWare RCM, CCBTO was looking to monitor all transactions and flag those that were unusual; screen individuals against various watch and sanctions lists; and create comprehensive and reader-friendly reports for FINTRAC.
