ML/TF Risk Assessments and AML/CTF Programs

This e-learning module will help you understand your anti-money laundering and counter-terrorism financing (AML/CTF) responsibilities as a hospitality venue. It provides practical guidance to help protect your business, your customers, and the wider community from being exploited by criminals who may attempt to misuse gaming machines, payouts, cash transactions, or venue services.

Course overview

This course is designed for managers, compliance officers, licensees, business owners, and senior staff working in pubs, clubs, hotels, bars, and other venues that offer regulated gaming or financial-style services. If your venue provides a designated service, you are considered at risk of money laundering and terrorism financing (ML/TF) and are therefore regulated by AUSTRAC.

Legal context

Hospitality venues that provide designated services must comply with Australia’s AML/CTF laws and are regulated by AUSTRAC. These laws require businesses to identify and assess money laundering and terrorism financing risks, and to implement and maintain an effective AML/CTF program. Failure to comply can result in significant fines, enforcement action, and reputational damage.
