Ongoing reforms to Australia's anti-money laundering and counter-terrorism financing (AML/CTF) regime aim to better detect, deter, and disrupt illicit activities and meet international standards. AML compliance is crucial for law firms, as non-compliance can lead to heavy penalties, reputational damage, and criminal liability.

Amended legislation for Tranche 2 of the reforms was introduced to the Commonwealth Parliament in September 2024. Tranche 2 expands the regime to include services provided by lawyers, accountants, real estate agents and others considered high risk.

Our experts will unpack the updated legislation and discuss:

  • Implications of the reforms for you and your practice
  • Responsibilities and ethical challenges for legal practitioners the new regime may bring
  • Anticipated implementation timelines and next steps

 

Presenters:
Matt Dunn, CEO, Queensland Law Society
Ian Lockhart, Partner, Minter Ellison; Member, Queensland Law Society, Banking and Financial Services Law Committee
