Governance
An AML/ATF compliance program and compliance officer function are under development in advance of operations.
Compliance framework
This page is a public summary of intended controls. It is not ALTA’s internal AML/ATF manual and does not represent that operations have commenced.
An AML/ATF compliance program and compliance officer function are under development in advance of operations.
The intended framework identifies and verifies legal entities, directors, beneficial owners and controlling persons.
Planned controls include sanctions, politically exposed person (PEP) and adverse-media screening.
Payment activity may require evidence of the origin of funds, commercial purpose and expected counterparties.
Risk-based monitoring and enhanced due diligence are planned for higher-risk sectors, corridors, goods, counterparties and transaction patterns.
Origin of goods, end use, export controls and potential dual-use exposure may require supporting evidence and escalation.
Record keeping and suspicious transaction reporting processes are being designed to meet applicable legal obligations.
Prohibited jurisdictions and restricted industries will be controlled through policy, screening and escalation.
Final policies, controls and service availability remain subject to legal review, regulatory requirements, banking arrangements and operational readiness.
Risk-based review
Who is paying whom, for what, from where, and why?
Those questions guide the planned onboarding and transaction-review approach. Additional information may be required, and a business or transaction may be declined.
