Is Your Institution Prepared for the FIC Crackdown?
by Mark Germishuys - CEO of NGA
The Financial Intelligence Centre (FIC) has significantly ramped up efforts to penalize non-compliant institutions, specifically targeting industries such as legal services, real estate, and others. With administrative sanctions, hefty fines, and severe reputational damage at stake, businesses that fail to meet their anti-money laundering and terrorist financing obligations face tough consequences. The recent FIC crackdown highlights the need for accountable institutions to ensure they comply with regulations, including registering with the FIC, submitting accurate reports, and conducting thorough client due diligence.
