Financial Intelligence Centre Act

The Financial Intelligence Centre Act (FICA) introduces mechanisms and measures that establish an anti-money laundering regime, which encourages voluntary compliance and self-regulation by accountable institutions.

Our advisory services 

Our team brings extensive experience in working with the FICA, aiming to assist clients in meeting their compliance obligations under this legislation.

The expertise of our FICA team encompasses offering guidance on the risks associated with non-compliance with the FICA, including the consequential implications and penalties outlined in the legislation and advising clients on the practical implementation and impacts of the FICA, taking into consideration the unique nature of each client's business. We also assist clients with investigations initiated by the Financial Intelligence Centre.

The Werksmans team has extensive experience in reviewing and revising risk management compliance programs and conducting training sessions on the various aspects of the FICA.
