Experience and Clients

Since beginning operations in 2025, LC HUB has delivered projects for companies operating in the financial services, FinTech, and crypto sectors.

Companies LC HUB has worked with include:

• Alltrust

• GAUS CRYPTO

• BITCASA

These engagements have involved businesses operating in financial and regulated environments, where AML/CFT, regulatory compliance, and risk management form an important part of day-to-day operations.

LC HUB is also a partner of CONSOFT, a provider of AML compliance software for FinTech and financial companies.

Through this partnership, LC HUB and CONSOFT combine compliance and technology expertise to support regulated businesses with compliance solutions, including VASPs, payment service providers, lending businesses, currency exchange businesses, and other covered entities.

Why LC HUB Combines Legal, AML, and Technology Expertise

For financial, FinTech, and crypto businesses, compliance rarely fits into a single discipline.

A change in regulatory requirements may require several things to happen at the same time:

legal assessment → policy updates → changes to KYC/AML procedures → technology configuration → employee training → implementation and documentation of controls.

LC HUB therefore takes an interdisciplinary approach.

Legal expertise helps identify applicable requirements and legal risks. AML/CFT expertise supports the design and implementation of financial crime risk management frameworks. Technology and information security expertise helps businesses implement controls and automate compliance processes.

This integrated approach allows clients to work with one multidisciplinary team rather than coordinating several separate providers.
