The Malta Institute of Accountants is pleased to inform you that the Institute’s Anti-Money Laundering (AML) Ad Hoc Committee has developed an AML Procedures Manual which can be used as guidance in developing your own procedures manual, albeit subject to further tailoring to suit your particular activities. The AML Procedures Manual was launched yesterday during a practical AML CPE event which was held at Hotel Phoenicia, Floriana. 

 

The aim of this manual is to provide the typical sole practitioner or general practice accountancy firm with the resources that it needs to comply, and demonstrate compliance with, the Regulations and the FIAU’s Implementing Procedures.

 

Some of the appendices consist of illustrative guides and cannot provide definitive or comprehensive programmes that may be required by given specific circumstances relating to the client, the firm or the relationship between the two. Firms and sole practitioners are encouraged to tailor the packs and their contents to meet their own requirements.

 

The manual is exclusively free to Institute’s Members and can be downloaded from the Anti-Money Laundering e-library section on the Institute’s website. Some of the appendices are also available in WORD format and have been written to be completed ‘on screen’ by using ‘text’ boxes and ‘drop down’ boxes.
