ANTI-MONEY LAUNDERING & COUNTERING FINANCING OF TERRORISM


Businesses that deal in high-value assets, or assist clients to buy and own high-value assets, will themselves have reporting entity (RE) duties under the Anti-Money Laundering and Countering Financing of Terrorism Act 2009 (AML/CFT Act).  An RE’s duties under the AML/CFT Act are complex and must be assessed by bespoke, risk-based analysis.  Compliance is non-negotiable and is enforced by government authorities. Fines and penalties for non-compliance are severe. 


Mark has formerly been the AML/CFT compliance partner for a prominent Christchurch law firm and is an expert on the Act and maintaining effective RE compliance.


Mark Orman Law provides a full service for REs which includes:

  • Identifying compliance duties under the AML/CFT Act
  • Setting up and managing effective compliance systems
  • Dealing with sticky compliance situations
