Stronger Together: Celebrating Growth and Impact at AMLHUB

Written by Richard Manthel | Aug 5, 2025 2:33:40 AM

At AMLHUB, we understand that success in the fight against financial crime is not achieved in isolation. It is built through collaboration, commitment, and a shared purpose. Recently, our team came together to mark a significant milestone: a celebration of our journey, growth, and the people who have made it all possible.

Over 12 years, what started as a small, agile group of nine people with a clear vision has evolved into a high-performing team of 42 experts, united by a common goal: to make AML compliance more effective, accessible, and resilient for organisations across New Zealand and beyond.

The gathering offered an opportunity to reflect – not only on our achievements, but on the values that have guided us. We shared stories from the early days, experiences from our AML consultants, and insights from team members who have contributed across every stage of AMLHUB’s evolution.

We were also joined by key industry partners, who offered reflections on their journey with AMLHUB. They spoke about the partnership we’ve built and how working alongside AMLHUB has helped them strengthen and streamline their AML compliance practices.

They acknowledged the impact our CDD outsourcing team has had, and how our work has made their day-to-day operations more efficient and effective. Their words were a powerful reminder that the technology and support we provide translate into real-world value for those on the frontline of compliance.

That impact is reflected not just in our technology, but in the depth of expertise our team brings. With years of combined experience across regulatory, operational, and advisory roles, we understand what effective AML compliance looks like in practice. Our outsourcing team supports clients operating in high-volume, high-pressure environments, managing complex due diligence processes with accuracy and consistency. Through this work, our team has directly contributed to the identification and reporting of countless suspicious activities to New Zealand’s Financial Intelligence Unit. It’s this combination of experience, vigilance, and action that gives our clients confidence that their compliance obligations are being met with integrity and care.

At the heart of it all is our why. AML is about protecting people and communities. It’s about ensuring transparency, integrity and trust – cornerstones of any strong economy and society. Financial crime erodes those foundations. Our role is to help stop it.

At AMLHUB, we know that robust AML compliance is vital to long-term business integrity, and our work enables clients to meet their regulatory obligations with confidence.

This commitment is only possible because of the strength of our people. Our growth as a company is, above all, a reflection of their talent, their belief in our mission, and their ability to work as one cohesive team.

As we look to the future - and to supporting the Tranche 2 reforms in Australia - we remain focused on delivering value to businesses, driving innovation through our technology, and empowering organisations with the tools they need to stay compliant. The team we have built, and continue to grow, alongside the partnerships we’ve made across the industry, positions us to lead with impact.

The momentum is with us, and we’re excited for what’s next.
