AML Guidance and Publications Templates
Our MLC guidance and publications templates provide a great tool kit for your policy controls and procedures. Their format is easy to understand and practical and include many examples.
What are they for?
AML regulations state that firms must establish and maintain policies, controls and procedures to mitigate and manage the risks of money laundering. The firm must maintain a written record of those policies, controls and procedures established.
We have a range of AML guidance and procedures templates for such documents. They are “tool kits”, offering a range forms and MLC checklists which you can then adapt to your firm’s requirements.
We have designed them to aid the MLRO in preparing specific policies, controls and procedures. We also include guidance for those awkward areas that arise from time to time.
They are based fully on the guidance issued by JMLSG and the FCA and supplemented by guidance from various sector-specific supervisory bodies such as HMRC.

External Review of Polices Controls and Procedures
Under the Regulations, businesses (other than sole practitioners with no relevant employees) must introduce a system of regular independent AML reviews. This includes an external compliance review, if no internal function is available, so that the adequacy and effectiveness of systems is better understood. Any weaknesses can be systematically identified, so that recommendations for improvement can be made and compliance monitored.
At BTC we offer to review your existing Policies, Controls and Procedures for their adequacy and effectiveness for compliance with the Regulations. Our expert report will detail our findings and conclusions, linking them to the specific sections of the Money Laundering Regulations and give details of recommended amendments to your compliance procedures.
Price for this service is based upon the size, complexity and nature of the business. Feel free to contact us for a quote.
Bespoke Policy and Procedure Drafting
The “off-shelf” policies and procedures manual is a generic “should do” document requiring specific input to create the firm’s “will do” policies. We can help draft specific policies and procedures for your firm, helping identifying the risks and applying appropriate management policies.
