AML for Accountants
SmartSearch is an all-in-one solution, offering flexible AML products for accountants, bookkeepers and tax advisory firms. We’ll help you meet AML regulations, get audit-ready and be 100% sure of your compliance, 100% of the time.
Making AML Compliance for Accountants Easy
Accountants are particularly vulnerable to money laundering, so ensuring your AML procedures are fit for purpose is vital. The expertise of qualified accountants can be used to disguise illegal transactions, and make them appear legitimate – this is why the accountancy sector is often targeted by those who carry out financial crime.
SmartSearch offers a time-saving, hassle-free AML software for accountants. We provide electronic customer identification and verification, as well as full sanction and PEP screening and ongoing monitoring. All AML checks are automatically saved in real-time, and can be retrieved on demand to support audits and regulatory visits.
For both accountancy firms and sole practitioners, failing to comply with AML regulations can have severe consequences; these range from fines to court proceedings or even a prison sentence. SmartSearch guarantees AML compliance for accountants, so you’ll pass your audit, every time.
