ABCsolutions' Webcast Seminar
Bill C-25 Compliance Results: A Discussion with FINTRAC
Bill C-25 mandated a series of additions to the legislation and regulations governing Canada’s
anti-money laundering/terrorist financing initiative. These changes have impacted on all reporting
sectors as well as those sectors added in the past few months. Reporting entities have had to
make changes and implement new policies and procedures across their organizations according to
a schedule of deadlines during the past ten months.
Different perspectives on different compliance issues have contributed to a myriad of results with
varying degrees of success. As a result, ABCsolutions and the Canadian Anti-Money Laundering Institute have approached FINTRAC to ask if they would
be willing to participate in a webcast seminar that examines how the implementation
process has progressed since June 2008. FINTRAC have agreed to participate in what we believe
will be a valuable opportunity for compliance officers to listen, learn, and have their questions
answered regarding compliance practices that have evolved over the past year.
This webcast seminar reviews some of the key compliance changes from the previous twelve
months; confirms the application of those requirements as per FINTRAC’s Guidelines; and explores FINTRAC's observations of how these changes are being addressed
across the reporting sectors.
