11 Aug 2026 Panzer Norge ASPanzer Norge AS: NOK 100,000 for AML failures at an accounting firm €9,115
Finanstilsynet (Norwegian Financial Supervisory Authority) fined the accounting firm Panzer Norge AS, based in Alta, NOK 100,000 under the Anti-Money Laundering Act. The inspection found shortcomings in the firm-wide risk assessment and in customer due diligence, as well as further breaches in risk and quality management and in engagement agreements; the company, which had five employees, essentially did not dispute the breaches.
Small accounting firms are also subject to anti-money laundering obligations and need a documented risk assessment and demonstrable customer due diligence for every engagement.
