1. AML Health Check

We are frequently being asked to conduct simple health checks on our clients’ AML programmes. These assurance check-ups are providing compliance officers with good levels of comfort and in many cases, recommended changes to their programmes. It is particularly helpful for highlighting deficiencies prior to the next audit or to check that your newly implemented programme is meeting AML/CFT obligations.

A good example would be recently captured Law Firms needing reassurance that their Risk Assessment and Compliance Programme documents and procedures are compliant post implementation. Common themes we see are CDD/EDD issues, clients struggling with complex client structures and the verification or certification of beneficial owners documents. Record keeping and register management is also proving difficult for newly captured entities. If you need any assistance in regards to this, please do not hesitate to call AML Solutions or email healthcheck@amlsolutions.co.nz

2. REINZ Real Estate Solution
