The current and emerging challenges, threats and risks that Australia faces in combating money laundering.
A detailed assessment of Australia’s exposure to terrorism-financing threats and vulnerabilities.
Criminal networks seek to exploit vulnerable members of the community. They target and recruit them as money mules to launder their proceeds of crime and reintegrate the funds back into the economy. This creates distance between the networks and the crime, and helps to avoid detection by law enforcement.
The AML/CTF reforms reinforce an outcomes-focused regulatory model. We are evolving our approach to prioritise:
- effective management of money laundering, terrorism financing and proliferation financing (ML/TF/PF) risks
- quality reporting.
To support this, we have developed our regulatory priorities for 2025–26. The regulatory priorities are the areas we will be focusing the majority of our regulatory effort over the next 12 months.
