The impact of money laundering is devastating – it enables serious organised crime such as modern slavery, drugs trafficking, fraud, corruption and terrorism.

A comprehensive risk assessment is key to understanding the money laundering (ML), terrorist financing (TF) and proliferation financing (PF) risks that a business is exposed to. By knowing and understanding the risks to which the accountancy sector is exposed, HM Government, law enforcement, and the professional body supervisors, as well as the accountancy firms themselves, can work together to ensure that criminals find it difficult to exploit accountancy services.

In this document, we have set out the key risks, and red-flag indicators, the AASG consider are relevant to the accountancy sector. We will update it on a regular basis, reflecting the UK’s National Risk Assessment and other emerging threats and trends.
