AML Compliance 2023 - Essential Update for the Regulated Sector

Introduction

According to the UK Financial Intelligence Unit’s Annual Report published 24 January 2023, there has been a 21% increase in Suspicious Activity Reports on the previous year.

The fight against money laundering shows no sign of slowing with the National Crime Agency setting up a new unit to combat high end money laundering and the FCA imposing high-profile financial penalties on financial institutions for anti-money laundering deficiencies. On 18 January 2023, it was also announced that the SRA has imposed a record fine for AML failings.

With so much attention on anti-money laundering, firms are expected to remain up to date with developments and ensure that not just policies and procedures are current but are in practice.
