18 Mar 2025 NZForex LimitedNZForex: formal warning over 3,182 unreported transactions New ZealandMoney laundering and terrorist financing Reprimand or warning

The company disclosed to the DIA (Department of Internal Affairs, New Zealand's AML/CFT supervisor) that, because of a system error in its prescribed transaction reporting, 3,182 transactions not denominated in New Zealand dollars had not been reported to the Police Financial Intelligence Unit between November 2017 and February 2024. On 18 March 2025 the DIA issued a formal warning under the AML/CFT Act 2009 and, given the prompt voluntary disclosure, refrained from more serious action; NZForex must provide the final report of an independent audit and report on its remediation.

What organisations can take from it

Reporting processes for prescribed transactions need regular reconciliation so that system errors do not go unnoticed for years; early self-reporting can substantially reduce the sanction.
