8 May 2025 Ninety One Fund Managers SA (RF) (Pty) LtdFSCA: allegedly ZAR 3m against Ninety One Fund Managers over flaws in its anti-money laundering programme South AfricaInternal controls €146,313

An inspection in September 2023 showed that the fund manager had not effectively implemented its risk management and compliance programme, particularly the risk rating of clients, and had not adequately identified and monitored some clients and beneficial owners on an ongoing basis. In November 2024 the FSCA allegedly imposed a penalty of ZAR 3m, a remediation directive and a caution; following a settlement confirmed by the FIC Act Appeal Board in April 2025, the appeal was withdrawn and ZAR 500,000 was conditionally suspended for three years. The amount and the facts have not been confirmed against the primary source.

What organisations can take from it

A written anti-money laundering programme is not enough if client risk rating is not carried out in line with it in day-to-day practice.
