Introduction to AUSTRAC
Who AUSTRAC is as a regulator and financial intelligence unit, an overview of the AML/CTF reforms, money laundering/terrorism financing/proliferation financing explained, and an introduction to the services AUSTRAC regulates and your key obligations.
AML/CTF Obligations
An overview of every key AML/CTF obligation for reporting entities — enrolment, developing an AML/CTF program, policies, customer due diligence, transaction monitoring, governance, reporting, independent evaluations, and record keeping.
Program Starter Kits: Risk
Walks through the Risk section of AUSTRAC's Program Starter Kit — showing how to identify the ML/TF risks your business faces, how the risk documents fit together, and how to build a clear, practical understanding of your exposure to money laundering, terrorism financing and proliferation financing.
Outsourcing
AUSTRAC outlines its expectations when you use a third-party outsourced service provider to help meet your AML/CTF obligations — including how to engage an effective provider, due diligence requirements, and managing ongoing risk. You can outsource the function; you cannot outsource the obligation.
