The purpose of the annual compliance review is to assist a Capital Market Service Provider's Board and senior management to assess, amongst other things, whether internal and external reports are being made (as required under Chapter AML-4), and whether the overall number of such reports (which may otherwise appear satisfactory) does not conceal inadequate reporting in a particular segment of the Capital Market Service Provider's business (or, where relevant, in particular branches or subsidiaries). Capital Market Service Providers should use their judgement as to how the reports listed under rule AML-3.3.1B (a) and (b) should be broken down in order to achieve this aim (e.g. by branches, departments, product lines, etc).
