At Ria, we know our customers depend on us to provide for their families back home, and we donât take that responsibility lightly. We strive to continue delivering the best service possible, never compromising the safety of our customersâ hard-earned money.Â
Since we started operating in Sweden over 15 years ago, weâve had an open line of communication and constant collaboration with Swedish authorities. Part of our day-to-day work includes complying with law enforcement and national FIU requests and reporting every suspicious activity we detect.
How Ria Money Transfer complies with regulatory obligationsÂ
Our agents are a key part of our network as they allow us to be part of our customersâ communities around the world. When illicit activity is detected, we immediately start a formal internal investigation and proceed to inform all relevant law enforcement authorities.
Ria is fully committed to preventing money laundering, terrorism financing, and any illegitimate use of our services. We utilize various resources and tools to collect information for the suitability assessment of our agents and to monitor their activities.Â
Monitoring and analysis
Ria complies fully with all regulatory obligations and goes beyond such requirements. Compliance is embedded in our culture, and our compliance controls are among the most advanced in the industry. We perform thorough assessments of prospective agents and conduct ongoing evaluations throughout the business relationship. We also ensure that all agents undergo periodic training, monitor their transactions in real time, and perform annual audits of our entire network.
This way, weâre protecting our customers, their beneficiaries, and our network of partners and agents.
How Ria Sweden works with the Swedish Financial Supervisory Authority
Our suitability assessment procedures are based on applicable legal regulations and are supported by official sources provided by the authorities. Applicants with prior convictions of serious crimes are rejected without hesitation.
Given that the Swedish Financial Supervisory Authority and law enforcement agencies have access to additional information and tools, we collaborate with them to shed light on cases that we may not be able to assess independently. This includes determining if a potential or onboarded agent is part of a criminal network or has connections to terrorist activities that are not disclosed in available resources and tools.Â
At Ria, we will continue to provide reliable, easy, and fast services to our customers sending money from Sweden to their loved ones around the world.

SĂ„ hĂ„ller Ria dina pengar sĂ€kra i SverigeÂ
PĂ„ Ria vet vi att vĂ„ra kunder Ă€r beroende av oss för att kunna försörja sina familjer i sina hemlĂ€nder och det ansvaret tar vi inte lĂ€tt pĂ„. Vi strĂ€var efter att leverera bĂ€sta möjliga service, utan att Ă€ventyra sĂ€kerheten av vĂ„ra kunders surt förvĂ€rvade pengar. Â
Sedan vi började bedriva verksamhet i Sverige, för över 15 Ă„r sedan, har vi haft en öppen kommunikation och ett kontinuerligt samarbete med svenska myndigheter. En del av vĂ„rt dagliga arbete bestĂ„r av att efterkomma förfrĂ„gningar frĂ„n brottsbekĂ€mpande myndigheter och nationella FIU. Vi flaggar ocksĂ„ för och rapporterar alla misstĂ€nkta aktiviteter som vi upptĂ€cker.Â
Hur Ria Money Transfer uppfyller lagstadgade skyldigheter Â
VĂ„ra agenter Ă€r en viktig del av vĂ„rt nĂ€tverk eftersom de gör det möjligt för oss att ansluta oss till vĂ„ra kunders samhĂ€llen runt om i vĂ€rlden. NĂ€r olaglig verksamhet upptĂ€cks startar vi omedelbart en formell intern utredning och fortsĂ€tter att informera alla relevanta brottsbekĂ€mpande myndigheter.Â
Ria Ă€r fast beslutet att förhindra penningtvĂ€tt, finansiering av terrorism och all annan olaglig anvĂ€ndning av vĂ„ra tjĂ€nster. Vi anvĂ€nder olika resurser och verktyg för att samla in information för lĂ€mplighetsbedömning av vĂ„ra agenter och för att övervaka deras aktiviteter.Â
Ăvervakning och analysÂ
Ria uppfyller alla lagstadgade skyldigheter och gĂ„r lĂ€ngre Ă€n vad som krĂ€vs. Efterlevnad Ă€r en del av vĂ„r kultur och vĂ„ra efterlevnadskontroller Ă€r bland de mest avancerade i branschen. Vi gör noggranna bedömningar av potentiella agenter och genomför löpande utvĂ€rderingar under hela affĂ€rsrelationen. Vi ser ocksĂ„ till att alla agenter genomgĂ„r regelbunden utbildning, övervakar sina transaktioner i realtid och genomför Ă„rliga revisioner av hela vĂ„rt nĂ€tverk av agenter.Â
PĂ„ sĂ„ sĂ€tt skyddar vi vĂ„ra kunder, deras förmĂ„nstagare och vĂ„rt nĂ€tverk av partners och ombud.Â
Hur Ria Sweden arbetar med FinansinspektionenÂ
VĂ„ra rutiner för lĂ€mplighetsbedömning baseras pĂ„ tillĂ€mpliga lagbestĂ€mmelser och stöds av officiella kĂ€llor av myndigheterna. Sökande som tidigare dömts för allvarliga brott avvisas direkt. Â
Med tanke pĂ„ att Finansinspektionen och brottsbekĂ€mpande myndigheter har tillgĂ„ng till ytterligare information och verktyg, samarbetar vi med dem för att belysa fall som vi kanske inte kan bedöma pĂ„ egen hand. Detta inkluderar att avgöra om ett potentiellt eller inarbetat ombud Ă€r en del av ett kriminellt nĂ€tverk eller har kopplingar till terroristaktiviteter som inte framgĂ„r av tillgĂ€ngliga resurser och verktyg. Â
Vi pĂ„ Ria kommer att fortsĂ€tta att erbjuda pĂ„litliga, enkla och snabba tjĂ€nster till vĂ„ra kunder som skickar pengar frĂ„n Sverige till sina nĂ€ra och kĂ€ra runt om i vĂ€rlden.Â
