Regulatory reporting with ARKK

Freshen up
AML REQ reporting

De-stress regulatory compliance
with XML conversions
at the click of a button.

 

Meet the CBI’s new XML submission requirements for AML Risk Evaluation Questionnaire (REQ). ARKK’s Regulatory Portal helps institutions prepare, validate, and file their REQ data quickly and accurately through a secure, cloud-based environment.

What is it?

AML REQ reporting: What you need to know

The AML REQ assesses exposure to Money Laundering, Terrorist Financing, and Financial Sanctions risks across Credit and Payment Institutions. The CBI has expanded and digitised this report, moving from Excel to XML submission formats to standardise data and improve the accuracy of sector-wide risk analysis.

What is the AML Risk Evaluation Questionnaire (REQ)?

Does it affect me?

If you’re a Credit Institution or Payment Institution regulated by the CBI, you’ll need to complete the updated AML REQ using the new XML submission format. The questionnaire is more detailed, with up to 765 fields for payment institutions, requiring enhanced data preparation.

What do I need to do?

Gather your AML, sanctions, and customer risk data early. ARKK’s Regulatory Portal provides XML-ready templates, built-in validations, and roll-forward functionality to simplify the transition from Excel and ensure your data meets the CBI’s new structure and consistency rules.

What's the deadline?

The 2024 AML REQ must be filed by 27 February 2026. The 2025 report is due by the end of August 2026, after which the submission becomes an annual requirement. Preparing now ensures your data and systems are XML-ready before the deadlines.
