Risk Management 風險管理
March 2nd, 2018
Since then, the anti-money laundering and counter financing of terrorism (AML/CFT) requirements become to be a major concern for regulators and law enforcement bodies in Hong Kong and DNFBPs are all now exposed to the risks of being publicly reprimanded, prosecuted and fined due to deficiencies in their AML/CFT control frameworks. Increasing numbers of DNFBPs now understand that the effective money laundering/terrorist financing (ML/TF) risk management and compliance is essential for safeguarding their reputation, customer interest as well as business growth and innovation going forward.
從此,反洗錢和反恐融資的要求成為香港監管機構和執法機構的主要關注點,且指定非金融業人士現在都面臨由於其反洗錢和反恐融資控制框架的缺失而被公開譴責,起訴和罰款的可能, 產生巨大信譽和合規風險。越來越多的指定非金融業人士現在明白,有效的反洗錢/打擊恐怖主義融資(AML / CFT)風險管理和合規對於保護他們的聲譽,客戶利益以及未來的業務增長和創新是至關重要。
