Unpacking the new AML/CFT obligations for Professional Services 2025 - 3 April 2025 (On Demand)
1.25 CPD Hours
Description
Individual Customer Risk Ratings
From 1 June 2025, all law and accounting practices captured under the AML/CFT Act will be required to risk-rate clients when onboarding them, and consider risk as part of ongoing CDD.
This is a shift towards a true risk-based approach for all reporting entities, and means law and accounting practices captured by the AML/CFT Act will need to change how they onboard clients.
Join our webinar where we will discuss the upcoming changes and how they will impact your firm, so you can effectively prepare.
In this webinar you will learn:
- What an individual and matter risk assessment should consider
- How to risk-rate clients
- How to incorporate this into your internal processes, meaningfully
This webinar is hosted by AML Solutions and is suitable for AML/CFT Compliance Officers, Compliance Staff, and all Lawyers and Accountants who onboard clients.
