What are some of the issues you might face in running your business?
- Being able to show that you “know your customer” especially where you deal with information and financial transactions
- Being given a “production order” by the authorities and needing to understand what information you need to give, and what information is outside the scope of the order
- How to avoid “tipping off” someone who is suspected of potential money laundering offences
- Recognising and understanding what money laundering is, and what your responsibilities as a business owner are
- Where to seek help if you are faced with a criminal investigation
- What the implications are for your business
Finding out about your responsibilities can be done through some initial research into money laundering regulations. If you are faced with an investigation or believe you have an issue, then it is best to seek advice from a money laundering solicitor, who can help you to understand fully the issues and what actions you need to take.
