20 Nov 2024 Immobilienmakler aus Laval, Québec (anonymisiert)FINTRAC: CAD 107,250 penalty on real estate broker from Laval for 4 violations of anti-money laundering obligations CanadaInternal controls €72,628

According to FINTRAC, the company concerned is a real estate brokerage based in Laval, Quebec; its name is not given here. Canada's anti-money laundering regulator FINTRAC imposed an administrative monetary penalty of CAD 107,250 on the company on 20 November 2024. According to FINTRAC's findings, made during a compliance examination, the company committed 4 violations of the Proceeds of Crime (Money Laundering) and Terrorist Financing Act (PCMLTFA) and its regulations. As described by the regulator, the violations concerned written compliance policies and procedures, assessing and documenting money laundering and terrorist financing risks, the compliance training programme and the prescribed review of the compliance programme. Specifically, FINTRAC found five gaps in the policies, including on beneficial ownership, third-party determination and politically exposed persons; the risk assessment consisted of a generic form without risk levels or mitigation measures. According to FINTRAC, the company has appealed the decision to the Federal Court. Summarised in our own words; not an official version and not a reproduction of the original.
