Northhold Advisory

Northhold Advisory is an independent AML and compliance consultancy for payment, fintech and crypto companies. It operates as Northhold Advisory LLP, registered under number 260540009757, and works remote-first from Astana, Kazakhstan.

Services The company lists two services, AML advisory and compliance advisory. Its focus on payment and crypto firms means the work centres on anti-money-laundering frameworks and the regulatory expectations such businesses face.

Markets The stated jurisdictions are Kazakhstan, the Astana International Financial Centre (AIFC), the European Union and the United Kingdom. This range suits firms that have licences or plans in the AIFC and want the same standards applied to EU and UK activity.

Who it suits Payment institutions, fintech start-ups and virtual-asset providers in Central Asia or those expanding there from Europe, which want an independent adviser instead of a full-time compliance hire. Rates and engagement formats are not published, so they should be confirmed with the company.
