We’re letting you know about upcoming changes to Australia’s Anti‑Money Laundering and Counter‑Terrorism Financing (AML/CTF) laws that will apply to accounting firms like ours.

What this means for you

As part of these new obligations, we are required to complete additional verification and due diligence on our clients. This is a standard regulatory requirement designed to prevent financial crime.

What we may ask from you

From time to time, we may need to request:

• Identification documents (for individuals and directors)
• Details of your business structure and ownership
• Information about the nature of your activities and transactions
• Updates if your circumstances change

In some cases, we may also need to ask follow-up questions to better understand certain transactions or arrangements.

What you need to do

At this stage, no action is required. However, if we contact you for information, we ask that you respond promptly so we can continue to provide services without disruption.

Our commitment to you

We understand this may feel like additional administration. Please be assured that:

• We will only request what is necessary to meet our legal obligations
• Your information will be handled securely and confidentially
• We will make the process as straightforward as possible

If you have any questions about these changes or what they mean for you, please don’t hesitate to get in touch.
