The failure of his first business led him to the civil court process where he was inspired to fix problems within that space. Callum Murray is the founder and CEO of Amiqus.co, a legaltech company located in Scotland.
Amiqus helps law firms to remotely verify and onboard staff and clients in minutes. In the UK, the rules on law firms and preventing money laundering are much more advanced than the US. As such, law firms have to conduct background checks or identity checks of staff and clients before accepting the engagement.
That’s where Amiqus get involved. They are a market leading compliance platform for legal, recruitment, public sector and financial services. The company offers pre-employment checks, AML compliance, identity checks, and enhanced background checks when necessary.
They began their work with lawyers and law firms and partnered with Clio as Clio grew into the UK. During the pandemic, they pivoted to working with the NHS in order to keep working while law firms were mostly on hold.
Callum shares some great suggestions for other founders and outlines the benefits of AML and KYC rules and regulations. Some of which he expects will come into play in the US in the not-too-distant future.
