Background of CIASS in relation to AML
Anti-Money Laundering legislation has been introduced in the vast majority of the major trading countries. The principals of CI Accountancy were involved as industry representative steering group members in the drafting, review and implementation of the first major piece of anti-money laundering legislation introduced anywhere in the world in 1995. The existing UK legislation and its attendant regulations and guidance notes are largely a copy of this law.
We have been through the implementation and internal changes necessary to ensure compliance with this law, and also through the many arguments with regulators concerning what is and is not acceptable procedure and practice.
We are therefore in a unique position in terms of our experience and depth of expertise in relation to compliance and implementation of the internal procedures required by this law.
