Anti-Money
Laundering Procedures
In December 2007 Anti-Money Laundering Regulations came into force requiring
firms to have measures in place to recognise and prevent money laundering. The Regulations requires firms to verify the identity
of the their customers at the onset of business and to undertake monitoring throughout the relationship of
the client. The Regulations require firms to keep records of identifications and to train their staff on the requirements
of the Regulations.
In an ever changing world both crime and terrorism rely on finance
and it is important that firms have in place Anti-Money Laundering procedures to disrupt criminal activity.
