TaxCalc’s Anti-Money Laundering (AML) Products helps accountants, bookkeepers and other finance professionals meet their obligations under the Money Laundering Regulations. The regulations require systems and controls to be put in place, which are capable of:
- Assessing the risks to the firm
-
Performing client due diligence
-
Ongoing monitoring of clients
-
Ensuring staff are appropriately trained
-
Enabling staff to make an internal Suspicious Activity Report (SAR)
AML Centre provides a simple and effective hub for recording, storing and maintaining all evidence of those systems and controls to ensure firms are able to demonstrate compliance to their supervisory body, should they be required to do so.
Getting Starting with AML Centre
We have collated all the information we think you'll need to fully understand your obligations as set out by the Money Laundering Regulations and to begin setting up and using AML Centre in order to comply with them. Electronic verification of your clients’ identities, if required, is only part of the process and the functionality can be used in isolation in TaxCalc, if AML Centre has not been purchased. For information on this functionality only, please refer to AML Identity Checks: Collateral.
