FC-4.2.6

In accordance with the AML Law, insurance licensees, their Directors, officers and employees:

(a) Must not warn or inform ('tipping off') the policyholder, beneficiary or other subjects of the STR when information relating to them is being reported to the relevant authorities; and
(b) In cases where insurance 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 insurance 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.
