Accountancy service providers advised to continue to refer to CCAB guidance

HMRC have published a new set of anti-money laundering guides to replace public notice MLR8, ‘Preventing money laundering and terrorist financing’.

The guides are sector specific and provide detailed guidance in relation to the legislation, risks, record keeping and reporting requirements relevant to each business sector.

The guides are available online only, and cover money service businesses, high value dealers, and trust or company service providers.

Accountancy service providers are advised to continue to refer to the Consultative Committee of Accountancy Bodies guidance.

HMRC say they are considering whether they can provide specific sector advice for accountancy service providers.
