AML Program

Your legally required AML/CTF Program — risk-based, unified, and always current

The Problem

Every reporting entity must have a written AML/CTF Program — but most treat it as a document exercise. A program that sits in a drawer, disconnected from day-to-day operations, provides no real defence when AUSTRAC asks whether your business actually operates by it.

A static Word document that predates your current products and customer types

Annual review forgotten — last update was 3 years ago

No connection between your written policies and what your team actually does

Why It Matters

Under the AML/CTF Amendment Act 2024 (effective 1 July 2026), the old Part A / Part B structure is replaced by a unified, risk-based program built directly from your ML/TF Risk Assessment. AUSTRAC now expects the Risk Assessment to come first — and the program to be proportionate to the risks it identifies. A static document no longer meets the standard.

How Verigo Solves It

VeriGo builds your ML/TF Risk Assessment first — from your industry, customer types, products, and transaction profile — then generates your unified AML/CTF Program directly from it. As your risk profile changes, the program updates. The document AUSTRAC sees reflects exactly how your business operates today.

How It Works

1

ML/TF Risk Assessment

Industry-specific risk matrix pre-populated. Customer types, products, channels, and jurisdictions scored. MLRO reviews and signs off.

2

Unified AML/CTF Program

Single program generated from your risk assessment — governance, accountability, CDD procedures, and monitoring rules in one document.

3

Customer Due Diligence procedures

CDD and EDD rules embedded in the program and enforced by the platform — not just written in a policy.

4

Registers & Training

Employee DD register, training log, and high-risk customer register maintained automatically as your team works.

5

Annual Review

Automated reminder. Guided review workflow. Risk Assessment updated first, program updated from it. Signed off and dated.

6

Audit-ready output

Current, complete program exported on demand — AUSTRAC receives a document that reflects live operations.

Key Benefits

Risk Assessment comes first — your program is proportionate to your actual ML/TF exposure, not a generic template

Unified program structure aligns with the AML/CTF Amendment Act 2024 — no outdated Part A / Part B references

Program updates when your risk profile changes — new products, new customer types, new corridors

AUSTRAC audit requests take minutes — produce a complete, current program on demand

New staff are guided by the same program your compliance team built — no knowledge gaps
