The Financial Services Commission proposes amendments to the Regulations on Supervision of Corporate Governance of Financial Companies requiring financial firms to incorporate key anti-money laundering and combating the financing of terrorism provisions into their internal controls standards. Financial firms must institute an internal controls system to identify and manage money-laundering risks by severity, establish an independent internal audit office for monitoring AML/CFT performance, and implement prevention measures and ongoing training for officers and employees performing AML/CFT duties. The public comment period for these proposed rule changes ends on October 25, 2017.
