Anti-Money Laundering Policy

Last updated: 1 January 2025

Alliance Global is fully committed to preventing money laundering, terrorist financing, and financial crime. This Anti-Money Laundering (AML) Policy describes the controls and procedures we maintain to comply with the Proceeds of Crime Act 2002, the Terrorism Act 2000, and the Money Laundering Regulations 2017.

1. Our Commitment

Alliance Global maintains a zero-tolerance policy toward money laundering and related financial crimes. All employees are trained to identify and report suspicious activities.

We are supervised by the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) and comply fully with all applicable AML legislation in the United Kingdom.

2. Customer Due Diligence

We apply Customer Due Diligence (CDD) to all clients before onboarding and on an ongoing basis. This includes identity verification, address verification, and assessment of the client's source of funds.

Enhanced Due Diligence (EDD) is applied to higher-risk clients, including Politically Exposed Persons (PEPs), clients from high-risk jurisdictions, and those with complex corporate structures.

3. Suspicious Activity Reporting

All staff are legally obligated to report suspicious activity to our nominated Money Laundering Reporting Officer (MLRO).

The MLRO will assess all reports and file Suspicious Activity Reports (SARs) with the National Crime Agency (NCA) where appropriate.

We are prohibited by law from tipping off clients who are the subject of a SAR investigation.

4. Transaction Monitoring

All client transactions are monitored in real time for patterns that may indicate money laundering, including: large or unusual cash deposits, structuring transactions to avoid reporting thresholds, rapid movement of funds, and high-volume activity inconsistent with client profile.

Automated monitoring systems flag transactions for manual review by our compliance team.

5. Record Keeping

We retain KYC documentation, transaction records, and compliance reports for a minimum of 5 years from the end of the client relationship, as required by the Money Laundering Regulations 2017.

All records are stored securely and are accessible to regulators upon request.

6. Employee Training

All Alliance Global employees receive mandatory AML training upon joining and annually thereafter.

Training covers recognition of money laundering red flags, reporting obligations, and our internal AML procedures.
