You’ve come to the right place!
Today sees the launch of our free guide – A Conveyancer’s Guide to AML Risk Assessment and Compliance – for property lawyers and conveyancers.
Why?
Financial crime continues to be a major issue in the UK. The Financial Conduct Authority has started to mount prosecutions on top of imposing regulatory penalties and civil fines against money-launderers, and the Solicitors Regulation Authority has pledged to take robust action against firms failing in their regulatory responsibilities.
We’re here to help guide you through the twists and turns of business-critical legislation, and are proud to have been awarded ‘Risk & Compliance Support Service of the Year’ at the 2023 British Conveyancing Awards.
We’ve created A Conveyancer’s Guide to AML Risk Assessment and Compliance to help you out.
What does it include?
Our helpful new guide is designed to help property lawyers and conveyancers avoid potentially serious misconduct and any associated enforcement actions. It covers:
- What is a risk assessment, and why do you need one?
- Ten considerations to risk assessment best practice.
Rob Gurney, Managing Director of Ochresoft, said: “The government and law enforcement agencies continue to crack down on those that fail to meet regulations. We must take proactive action to avoid enabling financial crime, and direct continued attention toward compliance, including anti-money laundering efforts.
“Firms need to show they are adapting policies and procedures in line with the law. Our free guide is designed to support property lawyers and conveyancers in taking the right steps to ensure compliance at every level. We hope you find it useful!”
