ANTI-MONEY LAUNDERING AND COUNTER-TERRORISM FINANCING ACT 2006 - SECT 38

Reliance on applicable customer identification procedures or other procedures--other circumstances

    If:

  (a)   a reporting entity (the first entity ) is providing, or proposes to provide, a designated service to a customer; and

  (b)   another person has carried out an applicable customer identification procedure, or another procedure of a kind prescribed by the AML/CTF Rules, in respect of that customer; and

  (c)   the first entity has obtained, from the other person, information about the identity of that customer that was obtained by the other person in the course of carrying out that procedure; and

  (d)   the first entity has reasonable grounds to believe that it is appropriate to rely on that procedure in relation to that designated service having regard to the risk the first entity may reasonably face that the provision of that designated service might (whether inadvertently or otherwise) involve or facilitate money laundering or financing of terrorism; and

  (e)   the requirements prescribed by the AML/CTF Rules are satisfied;

this Act (other than Part   10) has effect as if the first entity had carried out the applicable customer identification procedure in respect of that customer and that designated service.
