Australia's incoming Tranche 2 AML/CTF reforms will extend anti-money laundering and counter-terrorism financing obligations to lawyers and other professional services. The regime aims to close regulatory gaps, deter illicit finance, and improve transparency. Legal service providers will face new compliance, reporting, client due diligence, governance, cost, and risk management expectations, including training, technology investment, enforcement scrutiny, penalties, and cultural change.
In this live stream, hosted by Lawyers Weekly in partnership with Send Payments and Kit Legal, we will unpack what these reforms mean in practice and how legal service providers can prepare.
Our session with Send Payments will explore the challenges law firms face in managing international payments and evolving AML obligations. It demonstrates how Send Payments simplifies cross-border transactions from trusts, estates, and property settlements, mitigates compliance risk, avoids common pitfalls, and uses real-world case studies to show effective monitoring and management of complex international transfers.
Our session with Kit Legal will cover core regulatory obligations, governance and accountability, customer due diligence, outsourcing and reliance arrangements, reporting requirements, and a structured implementation roadmap to help firms embed compliant systems, controls, and processes effectively.
Join us to understand the risks, opportunities, and actionable steps your practice or organisation can take now to prepare for the new era of AML/CTF.
