Applying for an AML/CFT exemption?

Applications need to make a strong case for being granted an exemption. Exemptions can be granted on the following grounds:

• The business is at low risk of being exploited by money launderers and terrorism financers.

• It was not intended that the particular type of business should have to comply with the Act, when the Act was developed.

• The compliance costs and effort would be unreasonable compared to the risks the business faces

• The business would suffer a competitive disadvantage if it was required to comply with the Act.
