What’s an AML and why do I need one?

As a vendor, you might find yourself asking, what’s this AML I keep seeing when trying to sell my home?


An Anti-Money Laundering (AML) check is an important tool for preventing financial crime. It helps to identify suspicious activity and detect money laundering, terrorist financing, and other financial crimes.


A typical AML check involves verifying a customer’s identity, looking for any suspicious financial activity or transactions, and monitoring ongoing customer activity to ensure that the customer is not engaged in any suspicious activity. The check also includes looking for any potential connections to sanctioned countries or individuals.


AML checks are a critical part of the financial industry’s efforts to combat money laundering and other financial crimes. They are also an important part of many organisations’ compliance with anti-money laundering regulations.
