- Anti-money laundering information for prospective clients
In Cyprus and the other jurisdictions in which we operate, laws and regulations are designed to combat money laundering. Broadly, money laundering can arise if a person acquires, retains, transfers, uses or controls the proceeds of a crime or the benefit of a criminal activity. References to money laundering includes references to terrorism.
In order to fulfil our obligations we are obliged to verify the identity of new clients, and in certain circumstances existing clients. In addition, our internal requirements from time to time may require that we conduct background checks on new or existing clients. These may necessitate verification procedures of the identity and good standing of clients, one or more of their directors or employees or other representatives and others and the identity of clients’ or potential clients’ shareholders, beneficial owners, management, directors or officers and/or other relevant information, possibly including evidence of the source of funds, at the outset of, and possibly from time to time throughout, our relationship with clients, which we may request and/or may obtain from third party sources.
In some circumstances we may decline to, or may not be permitted to, proceed to act until such procedures have been completed. In other circumstances we may agree to commence acting whilst these procedures are carried out. We reserve the right to decline to act or, if appropriate, cease to act should these procedures not be completed to our satisfaction.
