With clear evidence that legal firms are unwittingly used as a “gate keeper” for criminal financial activity, many countries have implemented anti-money laundering and counter-terrorism financing regulations to minimise the economic and societal impact.
Compliance can be resource intensive
Complying with AML/CTF laws can be challenging for some, especially for small to medium sized firms. The risk-based principles give legal firms flexibility in how they choose to meet obligations but much of the industry guidance can be vague and lack clarity. For many, it is another layer of regulation that needs to be addressed with limited staff resources and AML/CTF experience.
