The Hidden Risk Inside Your Institution
It’s not your systems. It’s your people.
Insider threats are the fastest-growing danger in finance - and criminals are exploiting them every day. At Vaillance Group, we are former U.S. intelligence officers who have run covert finance operations, posed undercover as money launderers, and recruited clandestine sources all over the world.
We’ve conducted the same types of operations threatening your institution today.
Now, we stop them.
BANKS ARE NOW IN THE NATIONAL SECURITY CROSSHAIRS
U.S. law enforcement has been directed by the President to seize cartel money inside American banks - using counterterrorism authorities - and regulatory penalties have already risen 522%. 1
That means your AML controls aren’t just compliance tools anymore. They’re now part of a national security mandate.
But cartels haven’t abandoned U.S. banks. The DEA confirmed in 2025 that banks still remain the #1 target for cartel-linked laundering. 2
THE REALITY OF RISK SPENDING
Only 16.5% of security budgets are allocated to insider threats.
Meanwhile - 83.5% is spent defending against external threats.
