The Financial Action Task Force (FATF), the global group that sets international anti-money laundering and counter-terrorism financing (AML/CTF) standards, has published two recent updates relating to international ML/TF risk.

Dr John Moss, Deputy CEO Intelligence, has been awarded the Australian Intelligence Medal for his significant contribution and leadership in the Australian Intelligence Community. 

The Australian Intelligence Medal was instituted in 2020 to recognise those members of the National Intelligence Community who have given distinguished service that directly contributed to national intelligence priorities, requirements or capabilities.

You can submit your 2021 compliance report from 1 January to 31 March 2022.

The report covers important areas of anti-money laundering and counter-terrorism financing (AML/CTF) and helps us to understand how you have been complying with your obligations over the year, and where you may need additional support or guidance.
