He also hopes to complete long-term action against casino operator <strong>Star<\/strong> <strong>Entertainment Group<\/strong> and online operator <strong>Entain<\/strong> for various breaches.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He also promised that while AUSTRAC will work with the industry to achieve appropriate outcomes, there are limits to its patience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI\u2019ve been the CEO of AUSTRAC for just over a year and I\u2019m so proud of the work that we\u2019ve done in that time to reduce the harms to our community,\u201d he said. \u201cBut while I\u2019ve been working with the industry and our reporting entities to reduce that harm, AUSTRAC is not in the business of continuing to educate without action. It is important that businesses understand their legal obligations because I\u2019m prepared to take strong and swift action where it is warranted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cIf you expect AUSTRAC to educate, educate, educate and then take action years later, you\u2019re mistaken. If you think your business is too small to take responsibility for regulatory compliance, you\u2019re also mistaken. Your services in the gambling industry have been subject to a regulatory regime for many years now and it is your responsibility to comply.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Noting that licensed operators in Australia face an ever-evolving risk landscape due to \u201cthe digitization of currency, financial systems that are more dispersed and complex, the need for more sophisticated customer verification processes, and greater competition in the rapidly expanding online gaming sector\u201d, Thomas called on operators large and small to run thorough risk assessments in order to properly identify where the true risks of infiltration sit for each.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is in line with the <strong>Money Laundering and Terrorist Financing Amendment Act 2024<\/strong>, which was passed by the Federal Parliament last year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The amendments to the<strong> 2006 Act<\/strong> add a host of new industries to AUSTRAC&#8217;s remit: real estate professionals, lawyers, accountants, trust and company service providers, and dealers in precious stones and metals. It also amended the laws around how entities must meet their obligations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019re trying to shift the way that we do regulation in our regulated industries away from pure compliance to a proper discussion about risk so that we can talk to you about what that risk actually is and then we can focus practically on what are the controls that are directly aimed at those risks rather than just ticking a bunch of compliance boxes,\u201d he said. \u201cWe aim to take the bureaucracy out of what we do and how we do it.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Despite promising to be tougher on those who fail to properly comply, Thomas said the agency also wants to improve its lines of communications with the industries it regulates.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cAUSTRAC is making some significant changes ourselves \u2013 establishing functions that are purely about establishing proper partnerships with our regulated industries,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cIn the past we haven\u2019t done that and we are committed to working in partnership with those industries that want to comply with the law. We will also be much more transparent and forward on what our legal position is on a whole range of different moves and we will be more up front about where we are seeing risks that affect our regulated industries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201c[But] there is no question on where [illegal] funds come from and how those funds are impacting Australians. There is the crime that leads to profits in the first place and then the reinvestment of those profits into more crime. At the worst end of the scale, we are talking about illicit drugs running, scams, child sexual exploitation and significant amount of human trafficking, so if you are in the gambling industry you have a pretty big obligation to help us combat these problems.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Don&#8217;t forget to subscribe to our <a href=\"https:\/\/t.me\/sbceurasia\">Telegram channel<\/a>!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>AUSTRAC CEO Brendan Thomas, who is tasked with combating money laundering in Australia, will continue to keep a close eye on the gambling industry and will not be lax in taking action against companies that fail to meet their obligations.
