AML-4.2.6

In accordance with the AML Law, Capital Market Licensees, their Directors, officers and employees:

(a) Must not warn or inform ('tipping off') their customers, the beneficial owner or other subjects of the STR when information relating to them is being reported to the Relevant Authorities; and
(b) In cases where Capital Market Licensees form a suspicion that transactions relate to money laundering or terrorist financing, they must take into account the risk of tipping-off when performing the CDD process. If the Capital Market Licensee reasonably believes that performing the CDD process will tip-off the customer or potential customer, it may choose not to pursue that process, and must file an STR.
